Excerpt from an interesting letter in our local newspaper ("The Range News") this week :

" ... Maleny means nothing to Woolies, nor its people, just our dollars. A company that can undercut business and run at a loss until the competition collapses is unethical and abominable. A company that makes its suppliers suffer indignation and substandard prices is a disgrace. Shareholders' demand for greater returns is no excuse for shameful practices. A company should make profits by offering a better product, (rather) than just lower prices ... "

It ends by quoting Nobel Peace Prize winner, Elie Wiesel :
"Take sides, neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented."
