Joe and I were discussing baby stuff yesterday at breakfast and the horrors of buying something from Wal-Mart. Ike chimed in with, "And do you not like Wal-Mart, Daddy?" He learned this by observation some time ago.
Joe said, "No, I don't like Wal-Mart."
Ike: "And why do you not like Wal-Mart?"
Joe: "Because I don't like their business practices. They don't care about the communities where they build their stores, and they don't take care of the people who work for them, their employees. They don't pay them enough money to live on, and they don't help them pay for the doctor and stuff. They also sell yucky food and things that people who shop there don't need and can't afford."
Jeni: "And they try to make it so that the people who shop there buy these things that they can't afford instead of buying stuff they really need, like good, 'growing' food."
Ike listened very carefully and thought about it for a minute.
Then he said, "So do you like Target, then, Daddy?"
