Title: Soda Trademarks Sucrose Yet So Far
The Issue: For a long time now, the famous Eckie-Ecola and ancient Eckie-Cola have fought over both soda sales and name rights within @@NAME@@. The final straw was when a survey revealed that the minority which even knew they were separate businesses mixed them up when they were served an Eckie-Ecola product with its signature label hued slightly pinker to match Eckie-Cola's.
Validity: Must have a decent and privatized soda economy
Option 1: "This is outrageous!" shouts @@RANDOMNAME@@, the representative of Eckie-Cola, as @@HE@@ slams an Eckie-Cola product onto your desk. "We've been around in @@NAME@@ far longer than that Eckie-Ecola has been. Sure, our company may not be quite as well known, but we came up with the idea that Eckie-Ecola stole! We demand that they change their name and logo. The original should always be the one that has title rights!"

Option 2: "That is outrageous!" yells @@RANDOMNAME@@, the representative of Eckie-Ecola, as @@HE@@ also slams an Eckie-Cola product onto your desk, mistaking it for an Eckie-Ecola product. "So what if they came up with the name first? We're the famous ones! Everyone loves our products - way more than those Eckie-Cola losers! We demand that they be the ones to change their name and logo. The favorable should always be the one that has title rights!"

Option 3: "You two are outrageous," calmly mutters @@RANDOMNAME@@, your long-forgotten Head of the Beverage Department, gently setting down an Addison Cola Corporation product on your desk. "If you ask me, this kind of fighting because of brand names is the problem. We should just remove brand names alltogether. That will hopefully lead to a community that adds to a larger collective of goods out of kindness, rather than competing to get recognition. Plus, it'd make my job easier."

Option 4: "This whole debate is outrageous, my dude! The fact is that these corporations are actually the same!" announces conspiracy theorist @@RANDOMNAME@@, shoving everything off of your desk to make room for a Seppsi product. "Sure, they may be only slightly different in any way possible, but that's because there was a slip in the space-time continuum, resulting in the two same companies to both exist - only slightly differently. I mean, how else would you explain their founders, Elan Mustcat and Etone Music?"
