Can you explain why Coca Cola is evil? They make things that people want (I know I do) at a very reasonable price.

Anti-union violence in Latin America.

Is it fair to say that you think coca cola is evil because they do business with corrupt latin america bottlers?

That's cool if that is your belief, but where do you draw the line? Coca Cola is evil because they do business with evil people. Yahoo is evil because they accept advertising from Coca Cola. Companies that get acquired by Yahoo are evil because a part of the $$ they get is blood money?

You don't have to rebel, but you gotta resist.

They make people want poison and sell it to them?

Yes, it is bad in large quantities over an extended period of time. Is that all it takes to be evil? If so almost everything qualifies.

Not only in large quantities, plus it is addictive (sugar). Note that they started out with cocaine, back in the day. Sure, different times, but still...

I don't want to argue about the healthiness of coke, though. If you want to drink it, by all means, go ahead. It is your life, not mine.
