Conservatives dumping all over Starbucks to me is a little bit like liberals dumping all over Walmart. Both companies probably read the negative reviews and cry all the way to the bank.
Starbucks is obviously doing something right - call it marketing - call it stupid people - call it anything you want - but if you believe in free markets then obviously there are millions of people every day who spend their dollars at starbucks that could have gone elsewhere but didn’t.
....and most of them are women.
Agreed. Starbucks makes a good cup, and enough people agree to make it a capitalistic success. FReepers should laud the company for doing something right, even if they don’t like the product.
And yes I’m a coffee snob.
