my memory is that left-wingers have been far more vocal against these 
large companies, even coining a term for their dislike: "coca 
colonization."  leftists have quite recently been targeting these 
companies with a proposed  cola tax.

as a right-winger myself, i'm glad that with the bottling change that 
you can now purchase these wonderful american beverages and receive 3 
extra ounces per bottle!

and away to the forum!
