21. No, but......I won't shop at either store and here's why

Target gives 83% of their political donations to Republicans, they've given their pharmacists the right to refuse to fill emergency contraceptives on religious ground, they treat their employees as badly as Walmart does (oppose unions, mostly part-time work, must work months on end before getting benefits and even then it's hard to get enough hours to qualify for benefits), they've been caught using sweatshops, etc etc etc etc.
