Would it be slanderous of me to alternatively point out that while it's true that the Coke factory may have put the squeeze on the local thriving coconut and rice industry, it has no doubt provided a substantial number of decent paying jobs for those same locals?

I think Senor Chimp was only half kidding. Mr. Coconut farmer would likely make in a week at the factory what he would have earned from his annual haul of ripe, moist coconuts. Take the factory away so the rice growers can be prospersous again. And then you can post another article about how an evil American corporation sent hundreds of local workers back into poverty by shutting down its plant. That would be swell.
