    When you call someone choosing to buy a $12 latte a victim it makes everything else you say impossible to take seriously.

      If these people have been raised by exploitative pricing all their life, I honestly am not sure who to blame anymore.

      you use ‘choice’ like $3 latte is an option. You’re bent on manipulating people so it’s hard to take you seriously.

        You can get a latte at Dunkin donuts for $2.69 or McDonald’s for $1. Or, and this is going to blow your mind, you can live without lattes. We’re not talking about insulin ffs. How fucking entitled are you talking about a luxury item like it’s a necessity lmao
