Coca-Cola commercial shows modern slavery and thinks free phone calls in exchange for soda is enough to fix it.
They make $6 a day, and have to pay $.55 for a bottle of coke to make that free phone call. That's 9% of their daily salary.

The music is telling me I should be feeling positive about this great altruistic move on Coca Colas part.
My brain is telling me the truth. A brand worth over $74 BILLION dollars, in the most expensive place on earth that treats its labourers like total shit including taking away their passports, is bragging about giving away a phone call to a working slave after charging them for their unhealthy product.
Wow Coke, slow claps for you.
Oh yeah..So very right. This is wrong on so many blooming levels it's just silly!
It really is pathetic.
Very well put, I was scratching my head wondering if I missed something.
You would think that Coca Cola has enough money to just place these phones around for free and give out tokens for free.
As long as there is tokens it should be fine. The biggest concern would be the line ups forming to use the phones.
Line ups aren't a problem.. you go to any theme park and you wait in line for sometimes 1-2 hours to get on the best ride. Waiting is nothing, just as long as people get to use them.
A little taste of sweet sweet capitalism.
Total marketing scheme, and it seems to be working.
Play the right music with the right editing and folks will fall for just about anything.
