I wouldn’t buy soda stream or any other company. You never get enough gas for the price. A DIY CO2 tank is the way to go

Ha! Well said

“Capitalism works!” - They say, ignoring the environmental destruction, the starvation wages, the rampant homelessness, and the millions of people murdered in the name of ever-increasing profits.

We can all agree on the dismantling of capitalism, class hierarchy, private property, the wage system, etc. But even for everyone else, the people who still believe in capitalism (somehow), it should be obvious that a winner-takes-all voting system where we vote for one of two parties is not even a facsimile of democracy. It’s depressing actually, at least Europeans have the illusion of many different parties working directly to serve specific interests.

Of course, from our more critical lens, it may seem like a moot point.

Yeah, I should have said zero sugar flavor packets, coffee syrup sweatener, or juice. But the neat thing about owning your own carbonation tank is you can experiment with different options. Your results may vary!

We must return to tea my friends

Buy a carbonation tank and some specialty bottles/pipes/nozzle for under $200. Carbonate all your drinks for cents a gallon. Experiment with your own soda syrup or just drink sparkling water/wine. After the initial investment you just need to refill the tank every six months.

Yes, it is too much to ask of a corporation to not turn their product into garbage. Their entire incentive starts and ends at profit. They will do whatever they can to increase profit, and this is hailed as “the efficiency of the private sector”.

Do I have to sleep on a pillow to get the dream?
