Depends on your interpretation of better. My parents definitely led a more comfortable life filled with more happiness. At my age, they had already been able to settle down and establish themselves professionally. Meanwhile I'm struggling to find a job, may never be able to buy a flat and have been mentally ill since I was 13.
Morally though I am fully convinced I lead a much better life than them. I live more sustainable and climate-friendly. I am politically active trying to change the world for the better and fighting discrimination. In the work I do I try to help young people along in their journey, while my mother as part of her job has been keeping homeless people homeless.
I would not want to have led my parents' lives. Even though they are far better off than I will ever be in many regards, I am proud playing a tiny part in changing the world for the better where they were at least complicit in the world staying that way.
You don't want to ban advertising, you want people to have an interest in only making their services known honestly and with the intention of letting people know "this exists" instead of with the intention of getting people to buy something. Because it's actually good to let people know where they can get services or goods and what kinds of services and goods are available. And the only way to truly get to this point is by abolishing capitalism. As long as capitalism exists, there will always be incentive for people to make advertising more than just letting people know. As long as capitalism exists, you can do stuff like "going after false advertising more rigorously", "banning certain types of ads" or "restricting how many ads are allowed and where they are allowed". But that only limits the harm advertising can do, it can never stop it completely.
