speaking of tie-ins

For me it's all about coca cola. I mean, here you have an enormously popular medicinal, uh, beverage, with a nice whallop of cocaine and some groovy new world herbs to boot. Then the substance, the primary lure gets yanked, and what'ya do? Why, build a massive empire based on a precise imitation. That's America, man, that's the whole picture. It doesn't matter anymore, the old empirial notions of occupation and conquest. Who'd want to live in most of those places in this day and age? But coca cola has invaded the whole world. A bloodless revolution. I'd like to give the world a coke... well, hell, sure boys, but wouldn't it be nicer to sell them all one?

klik if you demand tedious explanations of every little thing.
