Is there shame in it? Is it really a bad business decision?

Look, I'll grant ya we're programmed from the minute we exit the womb. Corporate greed triumphs daily, if not hourly. All hail the Almighty Dollar! Et cetera.

What is Thanksgiving, anyway? It's just another day. Tradition is what ya make of it. Don't shop on Turkey Day. Problem solved?
