Wasted Potential plans on supporting those on the left and giving to charities! So you can feel good about spending your money with us. I also want it to be as earth-friendly a business as possible...
I feel a lot better about my soy chai lattes from Starbucks now...

I added this to my favorites, thanks!
I agree with Buttercup about Starbucks... I feel so bad for hating them so much.
Also, I was suprised that target gave money to Republicans.

I'm not surprised on Target. Most of their other chains target upper middle + individuals. Who are typically Republican.
All the major airlines have essentially been saved by the Republican administration due to various bailouts from financial problems.
I'll admit, I almost feel guilty too for hating Starbucks.

You know, with all the supposed financial problems that the airlines had in the past few years... I am kinda perplexed as to why they would be giving money away.
