    "Starbucks management justified its bizarre decision to turn its stores into public facilities where anyone can spend time without buying anything by referring to itself a “third place” – borrowing a term from contemporary left-wing sociology."

    "Interestingly, the Washington Post recently reported that Starbucks Executive Chairman Howard Schultz may seek the Democratic nomination for president of the United States in 2020. If that’s true, that could explain a lot about the company’s concern with pleasing leftist activists."

    Isn't that what the Brits have called their favorite pub forever?

    I'd vote for Trump over Schultz.

    Go Sonics.

    Difference is they expect to buy beer (happily doing so) while at their favorite pub, and they don't expect their pub to turn into a homeless camp. In fact they'd likely toss the buggers out before the pub owner found himself in a sticky wicket.
    Also, being a bum in the UK is different than being a bum in US.
