Coffee, The Last Affordable Vice (But Not For Long)

Isn't it bad enough that every possible vice in Sweden is either illegal or taxed to hell, without prices going up on the only plessure left....drinking coffee.

Sweden's pub culture is nothing like what you find in Britain, but instead Sweden has the coffee shop culture where people come to meet and chat.

But now there is the risk of higher prices even for coffee as world demand pushes up the prices of coffee beans.

Soon there will be nothing left which is affordable, unhealthy and gives pleasure in an otherwise humdrum life of work, kids and more work.
