I think in these hard times, it is important to remember everyone along the coffee production chain. Millions of families around the world depend on income from growing coffee. If that income falls, they will not be able to maintain their farms, meaning they won't be able to grow great coffee the next year, either. All the way up to the coffee retailers are regular joes trying to earn an honest living. Margins in the coffee industry aren't very high, so it is a wonder that we're scapegoated in the news when it comes to budget cuts.
