All the while biitching about big business and the evil of corporate america while also simultaneously lining their very pockets with ridiculous profit margins to pay for a CEO's massive salary.
Starbucks just personifies many of the things in today's society that really, really, really piss me off.

You're aggression is wrongly placed. Starbucks is not what is wrong with the world, it's Starbucks CUSTOMERS that are what is wrong with the world. They're weak willed individuals anyways, letting some highly caffeinated coffee drive their lives.
I personally don't like Starbucks the company because they make an effort to drive locally owned businesses out and take their market share. Yes, that is pure capitalism, which i should like, but I guess I'm a bleeding heart in that i still would rather support my locally owned and run Ma and Pa businesses.
