21. I don't mind shopping at Wal-Mart
When I'm throwing a party with the rest of the guys I always go and buy a shitload of food there. Why should I go buy the stuff at a mom and pop convenience store nearby and pay much higher prices? Just so I can feel good and tell myself that I'm hurting the big bad corporation? Sorry, but the nature of the free market is that smaller stores get swallowed up by conglomerates and large corporations. That's the way the cookie crumbles.
