Big companies tend to support Repubs because R's are perceived as supporters of business.
Local is the answer when it comes to hardware... and lumber.
The local guys have answers to questions, too. And suggestions, even.

Ever buy lumber at HD? Fucking airplane propellers... with splits and knots! Our local building materials store has actual, decent wood. Prices are higher, but when you build with shit, you end up with shit.
