I think it'd be easier just to pass a law requiring every American to drink a cup or two there every day under penalty of fine or imprisonment, or both. It isn't as if the country can afford multiple opinions on the matter. We risk losing the coffee race. We run the risk of American children turning into shapeless blobs of goo with donut toppings smeared all over their chubby little faces, forced to drink the dishwater that comes out of a Dunkin Donuts pot.

And that's for adults.

“Now.we’ll have 2 starbucks on every block instead of 3!”

Well they are still opening new ones in my area. My wife enjoys some of their items.

Each store they opened was effectively a business “estimate” it would go well. Obviously some didn’t.

Adjustments are made. That is how business works.
