That's a lie, I've been to NK and they have coca cola imported from Maylasia

>>3234509
honest question /his/

Do you think this is right?

theres tons of imported coke in Cuba

>>3234530
The real question is where did all the money go in the end? How did CocaCola spend that much money?

>>3234650
Stock options and executive bonuses.

That's the nice thing about being a company, you're actually supposed to take as much money as you can get away with.

>>3234580
>>3234618
it clearly means official distribution centers. Coca Cola doesn't profit off of the imported Coke. they get paid at the beginning of that line of importing. functionally for them, DPRK and Cuba "don't have Coke"

>>3234509

With that much money they could have a fucking spy network infiltrating every government on earth and influencing decisions that benefit them.

>>3234944
The amount of money they have and how big they are.

>>3234952
Obviously a sugary beverage drunk out of moderation is bad for you. But getting salty because someone made a successful product and it became enjoyed by a majority of people is autistic. Its one of the few things humanity can collectively enjoy.

Its a fucking coke.stop being bullies

>>3234957
If an 84 billion dollar softdrink company that passively exists scares you, you should see how big AT&T is and how much psudo-governmental power they have. Leave COKE ALONE

>>3234973
Who is gonna draw the line,anon? Coke Colas power is justified for it brings an enjoyable product to the table, and needs that sheer resource in order to operate. Same goes for AT&T. You need that power or else the service quality is going to plummet. We dont need to reduce the size of companies, what we need to is to ban lobbying altogether

you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar
