Not going to downvote you because that is one valid perspective. The other perspective is from those people who’ve worked there for years and are still not making a living wage, as well as those who’ve been fired/ had their stores closed for conversations about unions.

And whose fault is it if a store closes because workers dare to talk about unionizing? The workers who want to earn a living wage? Or billionaire Howard Schultz, who owns the company and values paying himself and his stockholders above paying his workers a living wage?

Oh, absolutely Schultz. I’m not defending him at all. Solidly with the workers on this.
