Not only that, but that statement was in response to making deals to buy up water several places, taking more than they bought, leaving some towns without a local water supply, bottling it up, and then selling the bottles to the locals who no longer have safe or sufficient tap or well water.
They also did a huge media blitz in poorer countries to convince mothers that their formula was far superior to breast milk.
- nucleardog 5y agoMedia blitz is really selling them short. They’d give new mothers samples of formula and tell them it’s healthier and safer for their babies. Just enough that by the time it ran out the mother’s milk hadn’t come in and breastfeeding would be extremely difficult or impossible to start. Then start charging for formula. Similar tactics to drug dealers, but most drug dealers I’ve dealt with had more of a social conscience than that.
