I have little patience with people with this type of attitude. Business is business, fair is fair, big or small. If you think it's morally wrong to walk away from the small retailer then it should be wrong to walk away from the world's biggest retailer and all sizes in between. No single raindrop thinks its to blame for the flood.
You honestly don't see the difference between a mom and pop corner store and Wal-Mart in a situation like this? A $20 error for the corner store could be 10% of their daily profit (I have no idea how much corner stores earn, but when you factor in overhead $200 a day doesn't seem that out of line does it?). A $20 error at Wal-Mart is .00000001% of their daily profit.

Sure no single rain drop is to blame for the flood, but if that flood is taking out Wal-Mart that's one hell of a storm.
