Being trendy and selling horrible coffee is something.

If they only paid their fair share of taxes, we wouldn't be having this conversation. It is not the responsibility of the poor and the Middle Class to keep their businesses afloat. If you can't compete get out. It's the nature of the beast.

Go away if he messes this up and Trump wins I promise I will never step foot in a Starbucks again. And I hope many people feel the same so this greedy POS can feel it.

We've already seen that business people don't know the first thing about government. He should stay in his lane, America has had enough of the business class messing up governance. Business objectives are completely different from Public Administration objectives.

Who is the model ?

Why do these multimillionaires speak like if they’re poor? They talk about taxing the 1% and they’re part of it and they have never done anything for the poor. 😂 gtfoh

Stop putting this guy in the news. He has no ideas, he just has a few bumper sticker solutions. Oh right, he is rich so therefore must be important.

That doesn’t mean they should run for President, Howard.

I bet Schultz has a lot of stock in Starbucks. How about we test that theory. Let's stop going to Starbucks for awhile and see what happens. It's really the only power we have with this administration. Putin is strong but I believe the american consumer is a lot stronger.

Vodacom take note of the headline. PleaseCallMe

'You will all be baristas & respected professionals providing a valuable service. ' (Of course you'll never amount to anything, have any net worth, etc. but hey you got that college degree right?)

The fact that Schultz is freaking everyone out makes me want to vote for him even more.

Of course he’s saying that AFTER he’s made his money. Now the goal is to stop others from making theirs. Have to keep the masses dependent on government

Go away

If “do more than make money” Perform Make_money_and_screw_ppl Environment_fks = 0 Else Perform Make_money Environment_fks = 0 End-if;

We don’t need your largesse Starbucks - people need to be paid fairly for their work. You shouldn’t get tax advantages that aren’t available to regular Americans. Your tax rate should be equal to what Americans pay.

They must serve man-kindly. Like CaverStem by $CELZ in our opinions.

Hey HowardSchultz you're right... they should pay tax on the money they make for a start.

Negative. Businesses need to remain a non bias entity among the common citizen.

So why was he so focused on money and profit when selling Seattle's basketball team to out of town buyers when talking about protecting the 'public trust'?

They already do. They provide a good or a service that people can use or benefit from or else they don’t “make” money.

I will never drink anything from Starbucks again. Or set foot through their doors. BoycottStarbucks

No thanks

Companies are already doing a lot: gthey are producing pollution, poison our rivers, exploit children, fight against labour laws, elect dummies as lawmakers, and avoid their responsibilities... What more?

He has no ideas. Full of critiques and no solutions to the point of delusional. The sooner this rich kid goes away, the better. The media is obsessed with billionaires. Not impressive, at all.

Filing under no shit Sherlock

Yes, they should also pay fair share of taxes

Hahaha, remember what happened the last time you gave a billionaire this much airtime?

So his idea is trust companies to help correct the wrongs of society. Hahahahaha

Then please go on work on that with your own company vs. jumping to wanting to be Prez, with no poli experience + potentially ruining 2020 by being Independent. Work on it- pay more taxes, teach others...

Agreed, but don’t fing run for president.

They should also hoard money and hide money in foreign bank accounts to avoid paying taxes as well

companies should pay taxes. companies should pay their employees a fair wage. companies should allow employees to unionize. I mean, come on. Who the hell is this guy that we need his damn input?

...says the King of overpriced coffee

I agree. So focus on that. Don’t run!

Keep peddling, no buyers yet...

How about pay the right amount of tax

Yeah, like . DoBetter

And exactly what have you done besides make money?

Yes. They should ruin politics too.
