Big Lots (a store in Southern California) is opened Thanksgiving Day from 7am-midnight. [View all]

This is so messed up:
When I was growing up, companies respected major holidays, so people could celebrate the holiday.
I worked Thanksgiving at Baskin Robins as a kid, but was let out by 4 or 5pm.
Now all these companies are all competing with each other by opening earlier and earlier.

Our country sucks.
