Corporate agriculture will buy up the land and find ways to produce at a profit.

Starbucks regularly charges $15 for coffee flavored drinks today.

Uh, where? Worst I've seen is the extra large Frappucino, which could be as much as $10 after tax and a generous tip. I struggle to see how you could get to $15 for a single drink.

If you buy regular coffee or a more basic non-milkshake drink, they're closer to $5.
