Howard Schultz: Brave or Naive?

I hope Howard Schultz, CEO of Starbucks, understands what he's bringing on himself by calling for a campaign donation boycott. He is apparently naive enough to believe that such donations are in fact voluntary. Under crony capitalism, one does not get to choose whether or not one is one of the cronies. You may rest assured that anti-trust proceedings or some sort of investigation by the justice department will take place rather soon. There is an example to be made here, and you may rest assured it will be made.

If and when it happens, will people's eyes finally be opened as to what the real situation is in this country?

Remember the lessons of Microsoft any one! The moment they threw money at government representatives was the moment Bill began to see his company's legal problems disappear.
