The lesson today? What is clickbait?

Click bait is a headline intended to get your attention
and get you to click on it.

But, back to the topic: Coffee workers are exploited
for slave wages and Fair-Trade Coffee works hard to
get good pay direct to the workers.

Drinking most coffee is like having a slave or is like theft.
And "Thieves" are specifically listed as not getting into heaven.

So drink Coffee and go to hell. (kidding)

And most of the clothes available here in the US (and especially the high price designer names) are made in Asian sweat shops, often times with workers chained to their sewing machines.

Remember that fire in Bangladesh a few years ago?

So are we supposed to boycott wearing clothes as well?

There is fair trade clothing. You are free to ignore
the plight of slaves that make other clothing,
and you go to hell. (kidding again)

Awwww, man. I thought you were going to say coffee itself is evil....and I was going to agree!

See, I love the taste and the smell of hot black coffee. Only problem is that it makes me wacky and I can't drink it. I lose focus, get off track, over react and what not. It's just bad for me so for the most part I just smell it.
This goes hand in hand with the thread on alcohol. If consuming something makes you wacky then leave it alone.
Me :love:Before coffee :ahah:Me after one cup :waaah:Two or more cups

If you wanted to you could start a charity to make people through out the world pay fairly, if 50% of what you collected went to the charity the better business burro would approve you.
If your wondering about a charity go to give.org , but you can't get any information on Christian charitys.
