Fascinating work on behalf of a murderous military dictatorship and great ally of Bush/Cheney. Ethiopia's brutality even made the front page of the NY Times today (6/18/07).
Way to go Reverend Billy. You helped buy the bullets used to kill villagers. Good workalulah.
In 2005 & 2006, Starbucks bought 2,400 bags of sun-dried Sidamo for retail sale at $26 per pound, or $8,236,800. The Fero Cooperative in Sidamo got paid around $436,000, or $1.38 a pound. The coop paid its farmers around $53,000, promising a dividend of around $7,000. The farmers thus got .73% of expected retail sales. The farmers need Starbucks to execute long-term contracts that guarantee them 2% of retail sales for its "Black Apron Exclusive."
To be clear, Fair Trade paid $1.41 per lb. in 2006 and starbucks paid $1.38 per lb. for this coffee. And that $0.03 difference makes you so mad that you have taken to the streets. Fight the man. Go get those three pennies.
I can't imagine why you would assume a 3 minute clip is representative of how every person in that video spends all of his or her time. By the same logic I could only assume you do nothing but leave snippy YouTube comments.
LOL this is hillarious, I didn't know that coffee was so controversial

I love how this idiot tries to slander Dub Hay by making fun of his name. Difficult to be a man of the cloth with hair like that.
I guess he has a good heart, but a brick for a brain.
