No, I don't mind at all if anyone buys cappuccino. what bothers me is they use tax payer money to fix it, which i'm fine with, but then they just expect the opening, closing, cleaning, and maintenance to be done by..."cafe".
except whomever owns the cafe expects it to make a profit. so now the water bottle filling things dont work, because they make more money selling bottles of water. now they're only open a few hours a day, because that is the busiest time. after a season or two, it is basically a tax-payer funded private business building that nobody who isn't free saturday afternoons between 9-3 can use.
i would love to go on a nice long run and finish with an espresso and a beer, but not at the expense of everyone else in the general public.
