These rich companies are showing unprecedented greed and disregard for American families. However it must be pointed out that if people would refuse to shop at these insane hours, they would not be open. The choice of stupid chasing of a "deal" over spending time with family is the root cause of this madness. I wonder where "family values" republican politicians and voters will be this thanksgiving evening?
