Water vs. Soda

Why does a bottle of water cost more than a bottle of soda in the machine here at work?

Because caffeine based drinks like soda and coffee promote capitalist values.

It would put you in a condition where it shakes out your tiredness and allows you to more easily execute repetitious tasks like working an assembly line or office work.

Exactly....the companies that produce these products want you to buy the sugar based garbage so that you'll get diabetes and have to get medication from the pharmaceutical company they also own.....

Because fools are willing to pay more for bottled water than for gas, a lot more even though much of bottled water is just tap water put through a simple filter.

Don’t buy bottled water, it’s foolish. Get yourself a nice home filter and a good water bottle and fill it up each morning before you leave. That is what I do.

I was going to get coffee when I noticed the price difference. Just plain black.
