    I'm thinking Starbucks is running out of ideas, especially with the Unicorn Frappucino. It will draw customers for a few days, but what happens when the curiosity dies down?

    If Starbucks wants to do anything, they could try improving the flavor of their regular brewed coffee... which tastes like burned dirt.

      It's called "Charbucks" for a reason.

                Even the Usual Suspects aren't falling for it this time:

                President Trump will unveil Wednesday a proposal to slash the corporate tax rate from 35 to 15 percent—a change that would balloon the federal deficit by an estimated $2 trillion dollars over a decade. The plan will reportedly include additional cuts to the income tax rate paid by high earners and a tax credit for child care that would mostly benefit the wealthy, at further cost to the federal budget.

                While some Republican lawmakers cheerfully echoed to TPM the White House line that the tax cuts will “pay for themselves” by spurring massive economic growth, both official government analyses and conservative economists are much more skeptical.

                “There’s no pure tax cut that pays for itself,” Alan Cole, an economist at the right-leaning Tax Foundation, told the Associated Press.

                Len Burman, the co-founder of the Tax Policy Center think tank, characterized it as “wishful thinking.” Bruce Bartlett, an economist who advised the Reagan and George W. Bush administrations, has likened these calculations to “using smoke and mirrors to institutionalize Republican ideology into the budget process.” George Callas, who serves as senior tax counsel to House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI), dismissed the framework as a “magic unicorn” whose main impact would be akin to “dropping cash out of helicopters on corporate headquarters.”

                  There's a joke somewhere in here about a diploma mill

                  @WTOP: Graham Holdings just sold Kaplan University to Purdue for $1 http://bit.ly/2pEn0Kb

                    I don't think there is. Purdue is not a diploma mill.

                      Purdon't is not, but a former arm of Kaplan (since sold off) has a history of being one. Plus, everyone ought to be suspicious of for-profit universities to begin with, even if they are accredited.

                        Well yes, but I am guessing Joe was trying to make fun of Purdue. Otherwise there's even less of a joke. Or I'm just very confused about the whole thing.

                          Purdon't is a STEM school. STEM grads are needed to keep mills/machines running. Kaplan was/is a diploma mill.
