I ' m genuinely surprised at how similar the new coke zero formula is to normal coke , like the older one was a non shit version of diet coke , but this new one tastes like regular coke for the first 3 seconds at least <| sep |> her dad is seriously fucking creepy tho . <| sep |> There are other benefits than just number of people employed . Any kind of large scale production no matter how automated still employs people , buys more local goods raw materials , energy , etc , pays local taxes , uses and employs local infrastructure , uses local services construction , security companies , catering , etc . Even if potential plant is 99 % automated it is still highly desirable for the country to have it in the US rather than outside .
