I'd direct you to this site: http://www.snopes.com/politics/military/target.asp

I've always found Target to be a more upscale Wal*Mart. Strangely enough, a common turn of phrase where I live is "Target is French for K-Mart." I wonder if that has anything to do with the urban legend.

Although they have turned to Chinese goods to compete (like nearly every other store in the world!), I think the company itself is okay. They seem to carry some better quality items and I don't see them in the news about smashing the souls of their workers on a monthly basis.

Anyway, thought you might want to reconsider your position. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
