Coffee Capitalism

I'm sitting in the coffee shop I work at (Coffea Island) getting ready to go to work. It amazes me the amount of economic discussion that goes on here. It also amazes me that such a small business can continue expanding its customer base in the face of such harsh economic times, even though the owners don't seem to be looking forward at all.

We also use fair trade coffee, which is certified not by a government agency, but a for-profit business that is meeting the demand of concerned coffee drinkers as well as making money.
