So Stop Going to Starbucks

The Department of Justice had $8.00 coffee and expensive snacks for a conference:

As the U.S. government grapples to find ways to trim the bloated federal deficit, a new report suggests officials might start with cutting out $16 muffins and $10 cookies.

Where's the scandal? That's what happens when you turn your back on Tim Horton's and Dunkin Donuts in favor of those fancy coffee shops. Shoot, DOJ might have gotten a volume discount.

And to be fair, the food had to be run through naked pastry scanning machines or groped in the name of security. That will up the cost, too.
