As far as I can see, Starbucks are the bastion of limo-liberal types. Generally on the affluent side, but votes for Democrats. As a matter of fact, I suspect most of Slate's readers hangs out at Starbucks.
The birthplace of Starbucks, Seattle, has its own financial disaster case, WaMu, even though Seattle is not exactly a financial hub.
So the less we have so-called pro-market social liberals, crawling in Silicon Valley and Wall St., we have, the better off we are. The less third way globalist financial whiz we have, the better off we are.
So, I ask the Slate to kill off all their subscriber base and close down the magazine, then America may have a hope.:-)

Their coffee is overpriced and tastes burnt, and you have to learn all these gay sounding words just to order. People that buy coffee there do it out of peer pressure mostly.
I’ll take a 7-11 coffee any day.
The 37 yo hedge fund manager who just retired, had some pointed comments about people like this- the Ivy League morons.
