one girl's journey to find out what love and faithfulness are really all about...
"Let love and faithfulness never leave you;
bind them around your neck,
write them on the tablet of your heart."
Proverbs 3:3
I have always taken issue to Starbucks view of social action. It upsets me that they offer higher priced fair trade coffee and also lower priced presumably "unfair trade" coffee. It seems to say that this means "As a corporation we don't care about coffee farmers, but if you do feel free to pay more to help them." They defer their social responsibility to the consumer. Pretty weak if you ask me. Thats why I have chosen a life of total coffee abstinence. That plus I don't like coffee.
