Also, I'm not sure what your idea of a big wedding is, but $12,000 doesn't buy much these days.
By the way, corruption touches a lot more than just diamonds (oil, healthcare, clothing, food...all thing I'm sure you use on a dialy basis), so don't think you're high and holy or super progressive because you watched some Leonardo DiCaprio movie, okay? Not to belittle the seriousness of the issue, as I am well aware of the blood diamond isssue.
No need for snotty remarks or unfounded personal attacks against me.
Have a lovely day.

The last Leonardo DiCaprio movie I watched was Romeo+Juliet so I'm not quite sure what you're talking about. I'm glad you're "aware" of the issue but you also should be "aware" of the fact that when you come on GC whining about not being able to afford a wedding and then say your fiance spent "nearly 12k" on a ring and that you can only get a good 1 carat ring if you spend that amount nobody is going to feel bad for you.
It's not unfounded when it's true.
