Soda Sales Hits New ‘High’
After waning sales, the well-established soda company ‘Eckie-Ecola’ has appealed to the government for the right to use powerful mind-altering drugs in their products.
I’ve encountered with 3 choices
1. “It’ll be great,” says Kirby Neumann, the CEO of Eckie-Ecola. “Nice ‘n’ happy floating feelings all in a can, and all for just one CURRENCY! It’s not the healthiest drink I admit, but what people want to do with their bodies is their own business. If you ban this beverage, you’re only denying the citizens of their right to be exposed to the true hallucinogenic experience!”
2. “This can’t go ahead,” argues Buy Tan, a nurse at one of NATIONSNAME’s hospitals. “Drugs are, and always will be, one of the greatest threats to the nation’s physical and mental health! My job’s hard enough as it is without having the wards overrun by patients who were stupid enough to drink the damned stuff. The distribution of drugs must be strictly controlled by the government and kept for medicinal uses.”
3. “If you ask me,” says Emily Wilson, from behind a cloud of smoke. “We should just let everyone have drugs for free! If the government legalised and subsidised all these ‘bad’ drugs and gave ’em out to everyone, all our problems would be solved! There’d be no more drug traffickers, or thugs robbing old ladies to feed their addictions! ‘Course there’d be a bit of a detrimental effect healthwise and to the drug industries, but the beauty of it all is that everyone will be too doped up to care!”
