Come on guys, we are all educated, let us spend more than just a few seconds to think about this one.
Have you ever wondered why the governments (read: politicians) do not bother about the local soda brands which are manufactured with far less quality standards, and may contain more germs and pesticides than the multinational brands?
Have you ever wondered how, even after so much protests and outrage, the big companies still manage to run their business as usual?
The wise can read the connection between the above two.
After all, politicians like to create trouble only for big companies - not out of public interest, but for their own personal benefits.
Read the newspapers after a month or so, and you will not find a word about this. So much for public interest. Does anyone REALLY care?
Let us think of the root cause of the problem. Pepsi and coke do not bring water from the USA. They use our water, and OUR water is contaminated. It is again due to the greed of our politicians (the people you and me elected), who are not bothered about ANYTHING, and go on approving every fertilizer and pesticide. Our lands are becoming toxic, and our waters are getting contaminated.
Forget about aerated drinks, test the glass of water that you drink everyday, and it might contain more pesticide than a can of cola.
Our children will never forgive us for casting our votes for such selfish people. Heaven knows, maybe in the future cola maybe the only safe(r) drink on earth.
