I mean it sucks and I drink coke (it's my mix for booze) but it's a welcome change (price increase). Soda pop should not be drunk as frequently as it is by people and anything to make it less common is a welcome change IMHO. If becoming more cost prohibitive to people makes them drink it less that's not a bad thing

Now the challenge becomes, because America is becoming a 3rd world shithole it's possible that coke is the only safe drink because thanks to the EPA being gutted over decades water isn't safe in many areas due to contamination. That's not cool.

You know that has a lot of sugar, which is a poison and will kill you right?

Everything will kill you in excess. Live life and don't be a Debbie Downer.

Hey friend, I'm not the one complaining about the water or people drinking too much.
It's friday and I'm going to have plenty of drinks, there will be no soda in sight.
I wish you a good weekend.
