Wal-Mart Warns of Democratic Win
Wal-Mart Warns of Democratic Win
By ANN ZIMMERMAN and KRIS MAHER
Wall Street Journal
Wal-Mart Stores Inc. is mobilizing its store managers and department supervisors around the country to warn that if Democrats win power in November, they'll likely change federal law to make it easier for workers to unionize companies -- including Wal-Mart.

Just further proof that Wal-Mart blows.
If they would cease screwing their employees, they wouldn't need to fear a union, because the employees wouldn't want/need one.

Neither, really - the whole thing seems very American (in both a good and a bad way, honestly) to me, to the point of inevitability. Kind of like hog lots, illegal alien labor, pharmaceutical recalls, patent infringement, outsourcing, etc.

I stopped going to Walmart because I thought the people there looked kind of trashy, but the article is even more of a reason why I won't shop there. I always knew something was strange about that company and those people.
ETA: I also heard that they're not very nice to their employees either.

You mean trashy like judging people who work at/shop at Walmart based on their appearance?

The world was supposed to end on 6/6/6. But it didn't... I guess folks missed the fact that no one will know the day or the hour...
Besides, I've been told that we are all going to Hayle...  I just prayed for them...
