Seeing things a different way isn't a crime, it just comes down to what matters most to you, saving 30 cents or feeling good about your choice. Clearly the poster who avoids Wal-Mart 'feels good' about their choice. I don't see the problem. Do you?

Again, "avoiding Wal-Mart" because of them using products produced by cheap labor, hurts no one...except the cheap laborer.
I understand the concept of wanting to line the big corporations wallets because they use standards unacceptable to most. What i don't grasp is how the very heart of the matter (using cheap labor to produce goods) is affected by this decision.
there is only one real big loser in the whole thing...the guy thats being exploited in (insert 3rd world country) already. Now you wish to take away his only (albeit meager and grossly unfair) income in order to prove a point to a huge multi-national that wont blink twice by missing your business?
A case of the "hopeful" ends, justifying the means?
I guess this logic is OK here, but not in Iraq?

(Just had to throw that in there)
