    As a non-drinker of coffee, I am fully onboard with raising the price of coffee. Everyone is far too addicted to it and drink excessively to an unhealthy amount. Less coffee would be better for general health. Same for chocolate, as I saw someone else mention.

    Too bad Trump doesn’t care about that and doesn’t actually have any plan in mind for this kind of economic policy for the welfare of the people.

      As a non-drinker of coffee

      the rest of your opinion is moot. you have no say in this because you don’t understand the concepts behind coffee.

      I had to stop drinking coffee for health reasons. it was fucking awful. drank a cup a day for decades. I couldn’t function properly even six months later.

      eventually I started drinking decaf, it helped.

      you know why? the routine. the caffeine content is abysmally low but it comforts me first thing in the morning. It’s probably the same for many coffee drinkers.

      so really, do you want to inhabit a world where at least HALF of the people you know start their day out on the wrong side?

      Maybe the improved focus from a nice cup of joe would have made you realize how foolish this sounds before posting.
