[Healeys] Fw: Craftsman Tools (No Flames!!)

My local grocer was bought by a multi national chain and created angry employees and removed local favorites from the store. Or moved jobs snd profits off shore. This is not a simple morality play

Hi Doug

Although some  would say the concept you described exists I am afraid 
the adjective you

is their friends,
the local grocer,  the bank, etc their approach is we are owed!

Kind regards
