@cindyweinstein Today, I needed some things that I could have easily gotten at Target, but I went out of my way not to shop there. I'm not the only one.

@kimlockhartga @cindyweinstein I'm in a burb, and grasping at straws. We have a Walmart, and a Home Depot, and a Hobby Lobby.... I didn't go, either, but I generally don't. I'm just at a loss about where else to go. Where else is there?

@janisf @kimlockhartga @cindyweinstein Should be lots of other options, if you look around a little. Smaller independents? Ace Hardware?

@ottominati @janisf @kimlockhartga @cindyweinstein I feel this pain! We do have a couple of Ace hardware stores - The closest one often doesn’t have what I need.😕

This is interesting attempting to compare companies: americandemocracyscorecard.org.
Notes:
Action Links to Xitter🤬
Tesla got a B…
There's only one A rating and that's HP😲
Apple, Costco, Nike, Best Buy all got B’s
Lowes got a D and Home Depot got an F

opensecrets.org This one is also interesting but the data seems a bit old.
