If (G_d forbid!) some kind of disease wiped out the world’s coffee supply (shudder!) I think this country would be doomed.
I hope I didn’t give any ideas to any nascent Dr. Evils out there.

If we're going down...so are most of the countries of Europe.
Maybe a decade or so ago, National Geographic had an article
on coffee, along with one of their beautiful maps showing:
1: Where coffee is grown/harvest: mostly in equatorial/tropical regions.
AND
2. Where it's consumed: predominantly in the USA, Canada,
and Northern Europe.
I'm sorry to admit that I just don't remember if a few civilized outposts
like Hong Kong, Singapore, South Africa were included in the
"Coffee-Consumption-Sphere".
