    We have the best cafe's in the world in Melbourne, why anyone would walk into a starbucks is beyond me, may as well go to 7/11 for a $1 coffee if your not prepared to support local business, countries stuff as it is.

    Speaking of the country stuffed, sanitarium products too, just amazes me people buy weetbix here when the seventh day adventist own it and not a single cent of the profit is taxed, again, no wonder this countries stuffed.

    I always find this concept amusing, I don't know why.

    Concept? It seems to me miniroo is expressing an opinion.

    When did it become a concept? Perhaps he is expressing an intuitive feeling about corporate franchising of localities.

    Globalism is all about CORPORATE control of the former corner store/mum and dad business.

    I find that concept dis-enfranchising :)
