I am boycotting Starbucks until they stop burning their coffee!
I had no gripe with Starbucks until I saw the extreme liberal and mindless "green" thrust of their organization.
If they would just stop preaching they could have kept this customer.
Of course, contributing politically to all-Dims all the time would have done it all by itself, too.
So no more Cash for Communists, Howie?
Big deal, then they turn around and support the very politicians who would SEIZE those guns.
Anyone can give any amount to anyone. Millions, billions.
HOWEVER, any pol who SUGGESTS any law, regulation, sweetheart deal, AND any contributors who are owners of, or sit on the boards of directors of, or are employees of, any company that is awarded any government contract, wins a bid for services to the government, or in anyway profits from ANY political donation, spends the rest of their lives in Marion, Il, in solitary confinement, with just enough oatmeal and water to meet minimum dietary requirements.
You wouldn't have to do it more that three times. Once for the Republicans, twice for the Democrats. (They don't learn as quickly...)
The thieves will have to find somewhere else to profit, and Democrats will have to find another way to make a living...
Starbucks both over-roasts and overcharges for their coffee.
20+ years ago he got permission from the mayor and the Seattle city council to put the driveway to his waterfront house through the neighborhood park. My friend who lived in the neighborhood and took her kids to the park, pitched a fit. Went to all the neighbors signed petitions and forced him to put his driveway on his own property and repair the park. I have boycotted him ever since.
When my youngest meet his future wife and found out she worked at Starbucks, he told her not to tell me where she worked. She is a manager there and has good pay and awesome benefits, it's Ok but I still don't buy Starbucks.
