New PETA song.

This is one of the new favorite songs for PETA. Without these types of endorsments, well...
People would probably start eating more vegetables.

I hate piling on. Ok I will

Starsucks is to blame for our financial meltdown! Those assholes not only attempt, but fail by making, some crappy what they call coffee, they are also sucking our economy into a hole, and they are sucking the economies of the rest of the free world into that vacuous hole with ours. Like a boil on the ass of humanity, Starsucks is what Revelations was written about. I am Sure the Mayans predicted Starsucks would end the world as we know it in 2012. Somewhere underground there is a graphic of that Siren Bitch Logo they use just before 2012 on that Cave Calendar. An appointment with the Devil(Starsucks)on that Calendar right before they threw up their hands in defeat. Either that or they ran into the end of the cave and couldnt go beyond 2012.

Here is the Full Article where I got this from :

Starsucks!

At first blush, there's a pretty close correlation between a country having a significant Starbucks presence, especially in its financial capital, and major financial cock-ups -- from Australia (big blowups in finance, hedge funds and asset management companies; 23 stores) to the United Kingdom (nationalization of its largest banks).

In many ways, London in recent years has been a more concentrated version of New York -- the wellspring of many toxic innovations, a hedge-fund haven. It sports 256 Starbucks outlets. In Spain, which is now grappling with the bursting of a speculative coastal real-estate bubble (sound familiar?), the financial capital, Madrid, has 48 outlets.
In crazy Dubai, 48 Starbucks outlets serve a population of 1.4 million. South Korea, which is bailing out its banks big-time, has 253; Paris, the locus of several embarrassing debacles, has 35.
But there are many spots on the globe where it's tough to find a Starbucks. And these are precisely the places where banks are surviving, in large part because they have not financially integrated with banks in the Starbucks economies.
In the entire continent of Africa, whose banks don't stray too far, I count just three (in Egypt). We haven't heard much about bailouts in Central America, where Starbucks has no presence.
South America's banks may be buckling, but they haven't broken. Argentina, formerly a financial basket case and now a pocket of relative strength, has just one store. Brazil, with a population of nearly 200 million, has a mere 14.
Italy hasn't suffered any major bank failures, in part because its banking sector isn't very active on the international scene. The number of Starbucks there? Zero.
And the small countries of Northern Europe, whose banking systems have been largely spared, are mostly Starbucks-free. (There are two in Denmark, three in the Netherlands, and none in the Scandinavian trio of Sweden, Finland and Norway.)
My tentative theory: Having a significant Starbucks presence is a pretty significant indicator of the degree of connectedness to the form of highly caffeinated, free-spending capitalism that got us into this mess.

There is a new reason to hate these guys!

H2Offenders: Starbucks gets blasted for leaving tap running at all locationsby Josh Loposer

When it comes to corporate greenness, there are plenty of surprise winners and losers out there. For example, IBM's business practices are more eco-friendly than Apple's. Or, that the once vilified Wal-Mart is now pursuing some of the nation's most ambitious sustainability goals. To add to the list, we now find that Starbucks -- one of the most successful and consumer savvy companies around -- has been pouring enough water down the drain each day to supply the entire nation of Zambia.

That's due to a strange health/cleanliness policy that mandates that a faucet over a sink called the "dipping well" must be kept running at all times. Apparently, Starbucks health officials believe that running the tap constantly prevents bacteria growth in the pipes -- or something like that. Most experts seem to believe that Starbucks' obsession with running water is pure superstition, and a wasteful one at that. According to The Sun, leaving one Starbucks tap running for just 3 minutes wastes "the amount of water one African needs to survive for a day in drought conditions."

The problem really spirals out of control when you take into account that Starbucks is operating 10,000 stores worldwide, pouring an estimated 6.18 million gallons of water down the drain per day.
