Morality? Ethics? are you saying that if I open up a business and it, as is the nature of business takes away those dollars away from my competitor to the point that they go out of business, I am now an immoral person? based on what standard of morality? for every dollar that you business makes that is a dollar that is NOT going into another business (basic microeconomics) and if you continue doing this you will put your competitor out of business, at what point dose that constitute immorality? if you do it once, twice, three hundred and sixty four times? please I would like to know what ethical or moral code you derived your economic principle from?
*****EDIT***** (I forgot to address this)
I will, and I do, it is the very free market that you apparently hold in contempt that allowed a guy from Kingfisher Oklahoma to build the would largest retail business. It is the free market that allows you to have choices and it not be limited to two as in some countries (Socialist Switzerland). Do I shop at Wal-Mart? No. Why? Because I do not agree with its current business practices, specifically the usage of the government to kill its competition, the violation of the free market principles that I stand on. Not because it is to large, or it is not local.Next time a Wal-Mart goes up within a stone's throw of your house, you can thank the free market.
