Starbucks and Whiskey equals "YOUR FIRED"




SEATTLE - A mutual fund company that invests only in businesses it deems socially responsible has dropped Starbucks Corp., citing the coffee giant's launch of a java liqueur with whiskey maker Jim Beam.

Pax World Funds, a Portsmouth, N.H.-based fund family, steers clear of companies involved in defense or weapons, tobacco, liquor or gambling. It sold 375,000 shares of Starbucks worth an estimated $23.4 million, about 1.6 percent of its Pax World Balanced Fund portfolio, the fund said in a statement released Wednesday. (By ELIZABETH M. GILLESPIE, Associated Press Writer)

Belive it or not Starbucks is actually one of the more responsible companies when it comes to sustainability
, free trade coffee and the environment. So, the next time you drag yourself bleary eyed, up to the counter, you can have a clear conscience when ordering that tall moccha latte.
