It's contact with democratic countries and their citizens that promotes democratic ideals in totalitarian states. Think Glasnost...and then Perestroika.
Isolating rogue regimes just allows the rogues to stay in place and continue to oppress. History has shown us this time and time again.
That said I have some sympathy with the notion of staying away from odious places.
It's the reason I don't visit Alberta. ;)

Those are some good points your not an ignorant man, that I know as fact. (from other conversation as well as this).
To some others... yes I have shopped at a wall mart but unlike most folks I guess I actually will make my purchases based on country of production. It may make my lifestyle a little more expensive but I sleep pretty darn good. I am not judging others....I just have a strange inner obligation to do what I feel is right.
