Is there any indication that their treatment of workers is unusual for
retail?  We do know that without Wal-marts, K-marts, Targets, etc., lower
income people would have a much lower effective standard of living.  I'm
willing to change my mind if places like Abercrombie and Fitch having high
prices only because their employees get such good benefits.
