The entire suit is stupid, but the dumbest part is that in 2020, the % of Starbuck's U.S. workforce was 69%*. In 2024, it's 70.9. This suit is predicated on a 1.9% increase in women in the workforce.

Missouri's AG Andrew Bailey is suing Starbucks, arguing that its workforce is too "female" and "non-white" and as a result Missouri consumers “pay higher prices and wait longer for goods and services" because its workforce is "less qualified"
This is a brazenly racist and sexist lawsuit.
