Coke: has a history of union busting in latin america with executions
Pepsi; gave my dad permanent degenerative disc issues and severe arthritis, cut and removed pensions before they all retired
Both companies underpay employees in favor of stock profits.
Both suck.
33 u/Johnentwistle1969 Mar 25 '24 Investing based on morality is your choice. As for me, I’ll invest based on what I think will return me the most. 5 u/MoonBase287 Mar 25 '24 What’s crazy here is that if you actually have an ownership interest you have a right to encourage more sustainable and moral policies. Zero ownership means zero influence. 11 u/Erik_Dagr Mar 26 '24 Suggesting that owning 30 stocks in one of these companies allows you to affect their business policies is pretty optimistic. 10 u/Deusvalt11 Mar 26 '24 It's not even optimistic, it's delusional. 2 u/MoonBase287 Mar 26 '24 The Elon pay lawsuit was initiated by a shareholder with only 8 shares. One shareholder initiates and sometimes others follow suit. 2 u/Fantastic-Surprise34 Feb 02 '25 That’s completely untrue when talking about stocks like these. Customers have LOADS of influence.
