In the English 1301 class I taught this summer the students did a chapter on globalization and fair trade - the text had many interesting articles for both sides of the Wal-mart/big box issue, which made for some interesting discussions.
One of the points I made as they were honing their analytical skills is that most issues are not black and white - shades of grey are always there.
So I don't shop at Wal-mart most of the time - but if I need to, I don't beat myself up about it.
