Exactly what I was thinking. Why should I give a shit that Starbucks is failing in China? I didn’t even know they were in China.

Yeah this more an Uplifting News article, but I guess people who still shop at (nonunion) Starbucks should know it.

Because it represents the tipping point where America lost its dominance. Starbucks doesn’t sell coffee but an affordable access to experiencing the American way of life.
If Starbucks loses its appeal it means that people stop looking up to America. Students won’t dream of becoming a scientist in America, business men won’t long for participating in the American economy, consumers don’t care about buying American products for being American.
All American products from now on have to compete on quality and service. This changes the value of the products and the value of the work that American workers deliver.
