What brands do you avoid at all cost?
I don't keep up with the news all that much, and many of the reasons to avoid something don't make it there anyway. So I'm asking here to make a big list of things to avoid. It could be anything from bad security practices to really frustrating packaging. Working as a cashier myself, I definitely know there are plenty of brands I avoid purely on the basis that their product is a pain to stock.
On the flip side, what's the alternative? If you avoid Pepsi, for example, what do you turn to instead?
Cemex/Cemusa, they buy all the cement Mexico which due to international pressure has no ability to tariff it or anything then sell it back to Mexicans at extremely high prices so Mexico, which is the Saudi Arabia of cement, is filled with half built buildings because no one can afford fucking cement.
For sure: fuck them, but this sounds more like a government corruption issue, laws should be in place to prevent businesses doing scummy monopolistic shit like this.
It is right next to the United States and they operate their military on the border and own all the politicians and businesses in Mexico. This is like telling an abused wife it is her fault for not standing up for herself.
All of the Cemex board members are American institutional investors. Cemex operates as a mafia in Mexico for the profit of American oligarchs. Cemusa was the old name of a parent company which was folded into Cemex, I'm old.
