Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz has started a boycott among corporate executives, more than 100 of whom have signed a pledge not to donate to politicians´ campaigns until legislators "stop the partisan gridlock in Washington, D.C."
CEOs of AOL, Frontier Communications, Zipcar, Whole Foods, Intuit and many others are joining Schultz´s crusade against politicians who have "chosen to put partisan and ideological purity over the well-being of the people."
Schultz overwhelmingly donates to Democratic politicians but said the fiasco over raising the debt ceiling was his breaking point and criticizes Washington for not coming up with a long-term deficit solution.
