Are Ad Agencies to Blame for the Current Mess We're In?

I recently saw an article on eMarketer regarding a Harris Interactive poll that found 66% of US Internet users said that advertising agencies were at least partly to blame for the current economic crisis. Why? Because they influence people to buy things they cannot afford. Which means an increase in credit card debt and defaults on those debts. Give me a break! Are you kidding me? Has the media gone so far as to totally control our decision making process? Is the media outfitting itself with mind-control games and subliminal messages. "Just say no" guys, it's pretty simple.
