None of that seemed like Christmas candy. Fail

Reel Candy canes. See's chocolates. Hershey kisses.

I honestly would have chosen the silver bar. If there wasn't a camera crew there, I wouldn't take either, because I'd just think the silver was stolen and would be paranoid about taking it. But since there was a camera crew, I would think it's some kind of gimmick, and they expect everyone to take the Hershey's.
I probably wouldn't sell the silver or get it appraised, just keep as a souvenir.

I'd pick almost anything above Hershey's chocolate. Straight out of the refrigerator or not.

I could almost see this as legit because:

1. Even if these people are total oddballs that naturally trust random street weirdos giving things away, the choice that is offered would have to make even the most trusting among them a tad skeptical. Because it's got to be a trick, right? I'd be like, yeah, sure pal, that's a bar of silver - but uh...give me the chocolate. Because:

2. I know exactly what a Hershey bar looks like. I don't need to trust his claim that it's a real bar of chocolate. Whereas:

3. Most people don't know exactly what an authentic silver bar looks like. I sure don't. At least not down to the exact size, shape, and markings. So they'd be trusting some nut's claim that it really is a silver bar.

Still though, it STILL seems unlikely, because, personally speaking, I'd much rather have even a FAKE bar of silver than a bar of chocolate I could get at any convenience store.

This x 100. Hershey's is unbelievably terrible

To be fair, this was my exact reaction to eating hershey chocolate. Even mentioning it makes me taste it at the back of my throat. I couldn't believe how similar it tasted to the last time i vomited.

Interesting tidbit: I recently was given a bag of the candy called Rollos bought at a local Target store. It was made in England. It had real sugar, real cocoa, but didn't cost any more per ounce than candy made in the USA that use cheaper ingredients, cheaper labor and doesn't have to be imported from Europe. I am sure Cadbury in England still makes a good profit on these bags that are imported into the USA so why the shitty wages and cheap ingredients here in the USA? I say this points to a difference in morality of corporations here in the US vs those in Europe. It isn't black and white of course but there is obviously some difference on a gradient.
This is the same for Swedish candy I bought at Ikea. Less or the same cost per ounce as Mars or Hershey chocolate even though labor and ingredients are more expensive in Sweden plus the product has to be imported (IKEA also adds 30-50% of profit on these chocolate bars, not sure how much my local Target or grocery store adds to their cost). What is sold as premium candy here is the quality of regular candy in Sweden. Why?
Greed at the cost of your customers is never a good idea for long term health of your company so I guess people at the top of these corporations are more greedy than smart. Not the kind of person that should be in charge of thousands of people's livelihoods.
Also interesting that a culture that is so hot for religion is less moral than a culture where churches are near empty. Makes sense to me. Organizations relying on getting people to stop thinking critically cannot be good for promoting morality after all.


Rolos are made by Nestle, just FYI. A global and far richer company than Cadbury's. But I'm positive your point still stands!

Sponsored by Rep. Daryl Metcalfe, R-Cranberry, the law requires voters to show photo identification before they vote at the polls. After a dry run in the April primary, it is scheduled to take effect for the Nov. 6 general election.

Speaking at a meeting of the Republican State Committee in Hershey over the weekend [6/23/12], Turzai was listing the accomplishments of the state House and Senate, when he pointed to the new law.

"Pro-Second Amendment? The Castle Doctrine, it's done," Mr. Turzai said. "First pro-life legislation—abortion facility regulations—in 22 years, done. Voter ID, which is going to allow Gov. (Mitt) Romney to win the state of Pennsylvania, done."

Context please?

The new title isn't much better. If you believe this guy, there are people all over the world slaving with a gun in their back for a bowl of rice a day.
Do you understand why the American left is associated with "hating" America?

>> ^longde:
I call it libertarian because of the actions and desires of the company.
I think its irrelevant how the workers got in the country, except that they were made more vulnerable. That said, even in a libertarian utopia, I assume borders would exist. Or would people be able to come and go freely.
I also think its irrelevant how the company came into existance. I am focused on its current actions. My question is how far would the invisible hand push this company without any regulation?
I cannot dispute the affinity (or lack of) of libertarians to chocolate.
That said, I will change the title.
