[quote=Anonymous]Unions are at their weakest in the private sector in decades. Right now, they're just a scary story. As for Wally World: 1. The "mom and pop" businesses they replaced had terrible wages (w/ no chance of advancing) and higher prices. So a few local Chamber of Commerce types who were ripping off their small towns got hurt. Boo freaking hoo. 2. Wal-Mart is indeed subsidized by the taxpayer to provide Medicaid. This is pretty bad. 3. Mom and Pop businesses exploited workers too -- or limited employment to folks with the same last name. 4. Given that Wal-Mart has 3,000 locations around the country, I'll accept the 17 violations as white noise, comparably speaking, unless you can show lower rates of violations from other national chains.
