In my personal opinion as the voice of the people I believe that Young men and women get influenced very easily, so you can imagine that constantly seeing pictures of 'perfect' bodies on advertisements will influence them to think that that is what they are supposed to look like.
As they get older they will think that if someone does not look as perfect as the people on television then they are 'ugly' and will pick on them for it.
These teens will try to become perfect and will hurt themselves in the process by causing illnesses such as anorexia or depression.

I believe that there would be a lot of important benefits to having a stricter policy to what people can put onto public television.
Some of these benefits are:
- Limit the amount of body image shown in advertisements
- Prohibit and use of sexualisation to see the product
- Double checking to make sure nothing in the commercial could possibly offend anyone from any race or sexuality
- There must be a certain set standard to how the ad works and/or sells the product.

There currently are not many restrictions on what can be put on live television,
there are only a few and they are things such as, Too many complaints will get the ad taken off the air, Swearing or using foul language, any extreme nudity and/or revealing images and anything to do with health issues and explicit violence.
As of now they are not super effective and need to be drastically improved.

This will deeply affect Some businesses that abuse sexualisation or violence to promote the product however, this is far more important to keep our youth free from the toxicity of the real world.
Those select businesses would have to change their ways of product placement to abide by the newly created advertisement laws.

As of the current times the government are the ones that watch over the advertisements to make sure that they abide by the advertisement law.
After a certain amount of complaints has been made on a certain ad it will be taken off the air and a warning will be sent to the company that produced this ad telling them that if this keeps up then there will be consequences.

A newly setup policy on tightening the restricted on advertisements would benefit the whole country. The public wants there to not be any non children appropriate commercials on television that could corrupt this generation's youth, because of this the public will vote for stricter television advertisement policies.
