Alright, someone has an argument.

I'm on full scholarship for financial reasons, just to start, and I'm doing work study to get myself through school like a lot of other students do these days.

But, besides that, what part of our argument said that people shouldn't go get the cheapest medicine they can afford? I think we actually argued in favor of living wages for both the workers in the factories who produce the Wal-Mart merchandies and the Wal-Mart associates in their stores. A living wage includes the cost of basic health care. Our issue was with the idea that the largest and most powerful retailer in the world actually has the power to help a lot of people get the medicines, food and shelter that they're not getting right now. The problem is that we live in a world where the global poor (be they in Bangladesh or DC) are getting screwed by the global rich (be they in Bangladesh or DC).

If some of us choose not to shop there, that's our choice as consumers of your "free market."
