Howard Schultz
oh yeah one thing I haven't seen any seattleites mention about how much howard schultz sucks is that the original version of the city's sugar-sweetened beverage tax would've assessed a tax on coffee syrups until starbucks lobbyists convinced the city not to
also it should go without saying how much downside he has among republicans once they find out he's the guy who approved all the holiday cups
It's fucking maddening, the way he calls them "not American" or the way he says we "can't afford Medicare For All", it's like, why can't we afford Medicare For All? It's just redistributing how we pay for healthcare, we're already paying for healthcare for most of the country, we're just doing it in a bad way, of course we can afford it!
--David Plotz, a guy so centrist he's literally friends with Jonathan Chait, on Slate's Political Gabfest
Journalists should all make a pact that if they get to interview Howard Schultz the only question they’ll ask him is “Everyone hates you, why are you doing this?”
