I know...and when you get right down to it, I really think we're all in agreement:
1) Starbucks Corporate realizes they're screwed no matter what, so of course they take the "high road".
2) Some people will degrade themselves and sink to almost any level to save a buck.
3) Some people like to brag about being cheap, thinking they are "beating" some imaginary "system".
I've said, over and over again, that taking the milk isn't illegal. But the fact that this has been debated to death shows that there are (at least) two ethical positions on it.
Now you just have to decide which ethical side you want to be on.
