Yeah but the aim of American advertisting has ALWAYS been to pull the wool over our eyes and pretend that we live in a "utopian" society where all of our own sh!t is better because it's "American". Nothing new here.
The bottom line here is the almightly dollar (I use the term "allmightly" loosely in this case). As long as we (Americans) are a money driven society, this will always be the case. Unfortunately it has very little to do with pride anymore and everything to do with greed.
