Don’t be surprised if they ask you to leave on a future visit. Even when homeless, I would still order a tea. Yes, they sell tea. Only time I wouldn’t was a Starbucks that would close at night, I would sit outside using it’s wifi.
If the action is malicious, knowing it goes against good Eoconomia, only then can it be considered a evil. Killing or wounding in true ignorance of the situation is accidental, because for whatever comedy of errors, you really didn’t know in advance. Starbucks runs it’s facilities on the basis that one if it’s primary core consumer base starts off as poor students who can’t afford much, and this builds up later on to dedicated middle class consumers during other hours.
The chairs, wifi, take as shit yuppie music, it is all aimed at attracting a kind of crowd, but they are willing to wiggle a bit. Consider buying that tea (green tea is the best) as part of your payment, and annoy your spot. You can stay literally for hours in front of a screen, they are set up for that. This is creating a symbiotic relationship, and even if your not a big spender, others will see your example and follow. Obviously, if everyone did that, it would cripple Starbucks’ business plan, but that can accommodate some per location, and even exploit it.
Your selectively breeding Starbucks as much as they are you. It is a give or take, that’s an simple analysis of good oeconomia. If you appreciate it, and use it enough to consider things like this, make it the best. It has needs for survival too.
Your resort to the language of “capitalism” and “evil” is just a not so clever way of wiggling out if it morally. You already know it is wrong by your own logic. Your hoping we confirm otherwise.
If you buy from a farmer a produce you know he can’t possibly make a profit from via some loophole, you do that farmer no good, and if taken far enough by enough people, it will force him to change his ways, denying you, or going out of business. Your suggestion of capitalism and a term unfairly tinged as theological (and we live in a idiot era where anything theological is disposable) “evil” gives you leeway out of playing along. That your completely right and justified. Yet you also know it is wrong. It is because the paracitical motivations intimately will unravel the good institution we have as a society, leaving the greater world impoverished. You know starbucks as a corporation thrives on money. You do too, so as long as you care for your destinies to continue to entangle, I suggest merging interests if you enjoy the little fake ass world they built for you.
This is why it is a good for a just society to castrate guys like Mr. Reasonable, and have them upside down swinging in damp, dark castle pits as water drips on them from above. Pure paracites aren’t nobles or free, they are the most enslaved to any system, like rats trapped on a sinking ship. They survive only by weakening the integrity of the Oeconomia. Justice is mankind collectively taking a sledge hammer to their heads. It is something every judge should consider, as it is the very essence of good jurisprudence.
