Dummy. They may pay $5.00 for a coffee but doing so shouldn't allow you to hold court for 4 hours while other paying customers have to stand. They "mooch" by costing Starbucks potential customers. They feel "entitled" to stay well beyond the amount of time most customers with manners would after buying one coffee.
Taking up a table for an entire night to squeeze every nickel out of a $5.00 coffee is a form of mooching. Doing so probably prevents another customer that would have bought a coffee and would like to sit down to enjoy it to go elsewhere. Would you rather have many potential customers that are willing to buy a coffee leave your establishment because no seating is available or cater to the customer that spends little and feels entitled to linger all night. The liberal with no manners lingers.
Yes, Starbucks "eventually will close" at the end of the business day forcing the hippie to go home.

There is the option of asking this person if you can sit at the table with them. You know getting to know your fellow man/woman what have you.

Sometimes people get a coffee to go and don't have time to sit and enjoy it, you don't know what's going on in the minds of the patrons of Starbucks. Some may be on break and just down to grab a quick coffee before heading back to their job.

Tell me what's the difference between somebody doing work on a laptop sitting at a table for 4 hours compared to a somebody nursing a couple of beers at the local tavern for the same amount of time? Do you consider the beer drinker a moocher too?

Why Liberals Are More Intelligent Than Conservatives
Liberals think they’re more intelligent than conservatives because they are
It is difficult to define a whole school of political ideology precisely, but one may reasonably define liberalism (as opposed to conservatism) in the contemporary United States as the genuine concern for the welfare of genetically unrelated others and the willingness to contribute larger proportions of private resources for the welfare of such others. In the modern political and economic context, this willingness usually translates into paying higher proportions of individual incomes in taxes toward the government and its social welfare programs. Liberals usually support such social welfare programs and higher taxes to finance them, and conservatives usually oppose them.
Defined as such, liberalism is evolutionarily novel. Humans (like other species) are evolutionarily designed to be altruistic toward their genetic kin, their friends and allies, and members of their deme (a group of intermarrying individuals) or ethnic group. They are not designed to be altruistic toward an indefinite number of complete strangers whom they are not likely ever to meet or interact with. This is largely because our ancestors lived in a small band of 50-150 genetically related individuals, and large cities and nations with thousands and millions of people are themselves evolutionarily novel.
The examination of the 10-volume compendium The Encyclopedia of World Cultures, which describes all human cultures known to anthropology (more than 1,500) in great detail, as well as extensive primary ethnographies of traditional societies, reveals that liberalism as defined above is absent in these traditional cultures. While sharing of resources, especially food, is quite common and often mandatory among hunter-gatherer tribes, and while trade with neighboring tribes often takes place, there is no evidence that people in contemporary hunter-gatherer bands freely share resources with members of other tribes.
Because all members of a hunter-gatherer tribe are genetic kin or at the very least friends and allies for life, sharing resources among them does not qualify as an expression of liberalism as defined above. Given its absence in the contemporary hunter-gatherer tribes, which are often used as modern-day analogs of our ancestral life, it may be reasonable to infer that sharing of resources with total strangers that one has never met or is not likely ever to meet – that is, liberalism – was not part of our ancestral life. Liberalism may therefore be evolutionarily novel, and the Hypothesis would predict that more intelligent individuals are more likely than less intelligent individuals to espouse liberalism as a value.
Analyses of large representative samples, from both the United States and the United Kingdom, confirm this prediction. In both countries, more intelligent children are more likely to grow up to be liberals than less intelligent children. For example, among the American sample, those who identify themselves as “very liberal” in early adulthood have a mean childhood IQ of 106.4, whereas those who identify themselves as “very conservative” in early adulthood have a mean childhood IQ of 94.8.

I love this comment - since 1/2 Governor Palin helped lose the McCain presidency.

Love a debate between Palin and Hillary - the moderator could ask the candidates whether Africa is a continent or a country.

I would pay big money for that debate!

You don't have "big money" so that solves that. But more importantly you are yet another gasbag farter on here wasting space. Go do something productive. Go over to your local democrat office and offer your services.....either gender.
