Because of what our society has become, it is frequent that you are forced to support companies or corporations that you are morally opposed to. I know whenever I buy something from a corporation I always feel that little bit of guilt. Actually, I feel it when I buy anything at all, because shopping is like supporting the capitalist economy, which I don't support.

So, at some point we will be faced with a decision that comes down to which is the lesser of two evils. We're faced with decisions like "non-corporate sweatshop, or corporate domestically-made".

So the question is where to drawn the line? What point will you just do without something? What are the key factors in picking the lesser of two evils?
