[3] Government spending with the primary purpose of providing jobs (rather than delivering any other end product) has been labelled "artificial demand".

[4] Similarly Noam Chomsky has suggested that unchecked militarism is a type of government-created artificial demand, a "system of state planning ... oriented toward military production, in effect, the production of high technology waste",[5] with military Keynesianism or a powerful military industrial complex amounts to the "creation of state-guaranteed markets for high technology waste (armaments).

[citation needed] Good mass media advertising can stimulate consumers' appetites and attract spending.

[12] Advertising influences demand by creating desire for a product or brand in consumers' minds.

[14] This lures traders who entered into the original short position to purchase addition shares in an attempt to mitigate their losses, which creates additional demand and increases the share price further.
