This thread may not be the best place to address that difference.

What thread would be best? That is ridiculous! I do not want to go to Circuit City to help my fellow man with something better than making a buck. In case you did not notice, our military does not have that snake oil on their faces! Circuit City indeed!

In their strictly selfish pursuit of profit, Circuit City has been driven to perform such acts of civic goodness as providing this wonderful service for the troops.

It would be difficult to find a more perfect demonstration of the power of Adam Smith's "Invisible Hand":

"...Each individual strives to become wealthy "intending only his own gain" but to this end he must exchange what he owns or produces with others who sufficiently value what he has to offer; in this way, by division of labour and a free market, public interest is advanced."
