Pepsi to start using real sugar again

[Beldaran]

After being a total junkie, I haven't had a soda in 2 months. I feel way better.

Hey, I've always been anti-establishment, man. It's just my approach that may sometimes be a little misguided. See, being anti-corporate, I thought the government was the only thing that could challenge their power. Not that I like the government either, but you know, it seemed that I could play one against the other to minimize the power either group exerts. More and more though, recently, I've come to realize that corporate power IS government power, that these greedy corporations I hate so much are actually using the government to further their activities.

Actually, this whole HFCS business was a real eye-opener, in that regard. At first, I was like "Damn corporations, pushing this shit on us because it's cheaper," but then I started to dig a little deeper, and then discovered the reason that HFCS was cheaper, that it was the corn lobby's influence on the government that was responsible, not that HFCS was actually cheaper to produce.

Not that I'm suddenly going to ditch my dirty liberal ways overnight - I still believe there are some areas in which only government intervention can secure our rights. But nah man, I've been trying to explain - I do believe individual liberties come first, it's the method of securing those liberties over which we've disagreed.
