Don't listen to "Mucho Destructo", as he doesn't know what he's talking about. There's even been studies prizing Starbucks for their policy on opening stores across the street from each other. Strategic placement of locations because they know we're too lazy to go out of our way for coffee, so they make the stores in our way. I could go on about the fair trade coffee and everything else he said, but just ignore it.
As for enjoying Starbucks coffee, yes I am! I'm currently brewing some Sumatra Siborong-borong, the newest Black Apron Exclusive. It's fabulous, you should try it!

Absolutely not, Starbucks is the third largest coffee buyer in the world, and yet they use only 1.6% fair trade certified beans. Furthermore, their business practices are suspect at best, as they have a habit of opening new stores across the street from or next door to existing, family owned coffee shops. Millions of people in Central and South America as well as Africa live in abject poverty because they, as coffee growers, are robbed and mistreated. I can't stress enough, drink only Fair Trade certified coffee to insure that these families make a livable wage for all their labor.
