Is Thanksgiving Just the Beginning of the Christmas Sales Season?

It seems that there are retailers who think that their profits are more important than their workers and letting their workers spend holidays with family. Most people enjoy family gatherings. Thanksgiving is a day when many people like to do this. There are retailers who were open today so that they can start making sales for Christmas. Do they want to rob this day of meaning? Do they want to turn Christmas completely into a commercial occasion with Thanksgiving the beginning of that season? For long time I have not been especially fond of holiday seasons, but for many people they are seasons of celebration. I do not think that Thanksgiving is necessarily a Christian holiday. It can be be a day of giving thanks to whoever you want to thank. I am not going to tell anyone how they should celebrate Christmas, but it seems that many retailers are more interested in making a profit. They really do not care if anyone celebrates. Their only concern seems so be whether or not they can make a lot of money.
