fuck corporate america

it has come to my attention that the entire world is controlled by corporate america. more specifically, it is controlled by companies that produce products that contain a legal, yet addictive drug. these drugs are caffeine and nicotine. what is worse, society conforms to the demands made by the consumers of these products. thats why you see the tall ash try type things with sand in them outside buildings, or the smokers stations, or whatever you throw cigarette butts in. also, thats why there is a damn soda machine in almost every building in the US. it makes no difference how much it costs, people still buy the shit and need the shit, myself included. this morning, when i go to get my every morning coca cola classic, i put in my dollar, push the button for my refreshing cold beverage, and wait. nothing happens. i push the button again. still nothing. mother fuck, i think, this piece of shit just took my dollar. i push the refund button, and out pops my dollar. i'll try this again, i think to myself. put the dollar in, still the same. it is only then that i notice the tiny stick in the upper right hand corner of all the selections that says 1.15. wtf? i think to myself. how dare these bastards raise the costs of a soda by 15%. i know gas is expensive as fuck, but does it really cost that much more to bring me this drink. inflation is also a factor, but still, i dont carry around an extra dime and nickel just for shits and giggles. luckily, i had one of each in my car, so i can enjoy this tasty treat, which is about the only thing keeping me awake.

$207 Million from what I read online. We're in the wrong business.
