Will it stay open after the looting/burning down?

Wait a sec - is a Starbucks even worth looting?

Will they be lowering their prices in those areas?

They can swipe those sold or stolen welfare credit cards at Starbucks as they could elsewhere.

That is pricey coffee for the poor to be expected to buy.
More likely the business class is expected to buy while the stowage continues to do without, make it at home or to buy it at Dunkin Donuts.

How many people in “low income” neighborhoods are going to take a job?


Good question. Jobs as Starbucks start at minimum wage or close to it. How many disaffected “youth” will be eager to work at the ghetto Starbucks for that pay? How many “youth” will instead bitch about how Starbucks is a billion dollar corporation and that they can’t afford to support a family on Starbucks pay???

Starbucks is hoping to cash in on the explosion of EBT cards in “Low -Income Neighborhoods”.

Lots of peeps down there getting benefits from multiple fraudulent EBT cards.

If illegal aliens can get multiple false identities to obtain multiple EBT cards, it stands to reason that native Americans should be able to as well.

It's only fair.

Wait, aren’t those the neighborhoods that are “food deserts?”

So they’ll be starving but they’ll have burnt coffee!

“Any company that opens a business to “create jobs” will not be in business very long”

Starbucks is many things, dumb isn’t one of them. They have more than enough smucks to pay $4-6 for coffee in affluent areas to offset lose leaders in the few slum areas they claim they will invade.
