Well not likely, but the venerable International Workers of the World, formed in 1905 according to the article in the Seattle Times,  Wobblies try to unionize a Starbucks in New York are trying to organize a Starbucks in lower Manhattan.  The success will depend on the unit question, a store as the union wants, or a 50 store district as the company argues. My guess is that bourgeois side of BoBo's (from David Brooks, Bobos in Paradise) will win out in case a picket line ever bars any Starbucks. Of course John Kerry won't cross. But will he send some one?
