Can A Cup of Joe Lead to Compromise?

Starbuck CEO is hoping a cup of joe can lead to a compromise in Washington. Today and tomorrow if you go into a Starbucks and buy someone else their favorite drink they will give you a free tall brewed coffee.

Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz is basically challenging lawmakers to ponder the question- Americans can get along, so why can't you!?!

He's not alone in offering Americans Relief. Boston Market is offering Federal workers a free chicken with the purchase of a meal until October 13th.

Do you think this will work? Will a display of good will by all of America inspire lawmakers to come to the table? Are you going to pay it forward? I hope so.
