Starbuck's Quote # 201

Complex problems defy simple solutions. One cannot end poverty by giving money to every poor person, nor is the world cleaned up if everyone rode their bikes to work instead of driving. We need to commit to a total solution for our perceived problems. We need to also remember that most solutions hurt people too. What or who we hurt and who or what we fix is always the tough part of the equation.

This was once on a Starbucks cup of mine. I believe it was the last Starbucks I had...right before India at the commissioning service.

I have gotten this quote on the last 10-15 starbucks cups within the last 2 months. It seems to be the only cup left.

He's right. I don't agree with him much, he's too conservative for me. He's my brother
