. . . . . eliminate "small" and the smallest size is a "medium", I still call it small. McDonalds has done this as have others.

As to Starbucks, I really don't know who's what. I order a small latte or a double shot of espresso. No bullshit names. I always get what I want.

The thought of any of the money he made by overcharging people for coffee could go to one of those homeless standing outside his cafes makes him crazy.

Billionaires for the most part are the problem with the world. In that there could even be billionaires

You said it perfectly. I don't think very many of our announced candidates would fit his stupid label. Who cares - we can't be dictated to by him.

If he thinks he's gonna 'blackmail' the party into republican-LITE, he can fuck right off and GET charged 70%.

I'm DONE with my Party being threatened by (and therefore afraid of) rich assholes who think they owe society nothing except the grace of their Rich Presence.

Piss on them.
