DRUNK: "You kids have been forcefed processed quasi-food for so long,
most of you have forgotten what real food is supposed to taste like. In
the 1970's the US department of agriculture perfected the process of
subsidizing high yield soy and corn. Corporations could process the
stuff into hydrogenated soybean oil and high fructose corn syrup, which
could then be sold to big food conglomerates. We ate that shit for
years in fast food and school lunches, and then McDonalds grew
geometrically by exporting these fattening, cheap processed foods all
over the world. This stuff is shit, tastes bad, gives you spots, packed
with cholesterol... It's got the fucking vitreous humour (eyeball
juice) from a cow in it for fuck's sake!!! McDonalds has so much
political clout that they don't have to adhere to human consumption
standards. Just learn how to cook... or eat dog food, it's actually
better for you... I'm laughing too hard at the gallows humour inherent
in this topic... you guys are funner than getting high, god bless you
all."
A PIMPLY KID:"Ummm... how bout the fact that McDonald's spends billions
every year on charities like the Ronald McDonald House"
DRUNK: "Yeah, and the KKK cleans up roadside litter, wal-mart donates
to the Mayo clinic, so fucking what. It's a tax write-off, and it's
good public relations, and you fell for it. The tobacco companies are
proud sponsors of meals on wheels programs, that doesn't mean smokers
are gonna magically stop dying of lung cancer.
Seriously, kid, capitalism and it's big corporations have vast armies
of lawyers, lobbyists, and PR people who get paid very well to stick up
for them every day. If you are not on the payroll, how did you get
suckered into defending them? Capitalism isn't gonna crash to the
ground just because some drunk in front of a burger joint expressed his
disrespect for the system."
KID: "I said what I said because I saw the effects of things like the
Ronald McDonald House and the care mobile first hand. I had to deliver
their supplies while working at Children's Hospital. for fucks sake, I
don't give a fuck if they are a capitalist corporate giant or
imperialist whatever, THEY WERE HELPING THE FUCKING KIDS!!!! they were
helping the fucking families, these are sick and sometimes dying kids!
regardless if it is in your opinion a tax write off, so be it, Atleast
the kids are getting the help they need!! I had to see these kids
suffering everyday and sometimes dying and it was nice that a place
like the ROnald McDonald house does what it does. They spend billions
of dollars to help the kids and you know what, they don't HAVE to, but
they do so regardless its still helping out the kids, so no, I HAVEN'T
BEEN FUCKING SUCKERED! people have the choice if they want to eat there
or not, I don't, but what they are doing to help out the kids is
important to me and if you want to think I'm an ignorant fool so be it,
you can call me what you want, I don't understand but fuck it, as long
as I see those kids happy and getting the chance they deserve then its
all okay in my book."
DRUNK: "Never called you an ignorant fool,Kid, I am merely trying to
point out that these companies, this country, this world, is run by
gray faced old maggots, they know the handshake and they buy and trade
us and if I can't hurt them the least I can do is see through their
lies... If the McDonalds shareholders gave 2 shits about sick kids they
would not market their junk food so aggressively to children.
Seriously. Just like if our government cared so much about spreading
democracy and lifting up the oppressed, they would have intervened in
the sudan by now... the tangent I wanna go off on stretches back 200
years but nobody cares... If somebody in a tower is gonna throw buckets
of shit on us, there isn't much we can do at this point, but I will be
goddamed if I'm gonna sit here and listen to you telling me it's
pennies from heaven."
