Kentucky, America, has a huge problem with "Mountain Dew Mouth". Pepsi sells their drinks there really cheap and the health impacts are atrocious. Now Pepsi understands the implications of what their drinks are causing on a social level and decided to fund mobile dentist vans to treat the children. In health this is a re-active solution when instead if we had a proactive solution of educating these low ses communities to the actual harm of the drink itself. But alas capitalism must roll on and so we will just struggle along stuck in this vicious cycle.

thanks for that.
Interesting the pepsi thing ------------------- strange to my mind - sort of like cigarette companies funding lung cancer treatment or grog companies funding alcoholism clinics.
