Any Wal-Mart haters here today?

I saw a program on TV regarding WalMart and what it costs the U.S. because of its low-paying, slave wages.

I need any URLs you can give me to post just how bad it is to fight on another board. Help me out Loungers?

Tanks!

2. I'm assuming this might be

the program you watched. If not, it's a really good one!

3. I'm just glad to say that since I quit my night shift job, I've avoided setting foot in a Wal-Mart.

So I've been Wal-Mart free for about six months now. :P

5. Hi DarkTirade.

Would you believe, I have never set foot in a WalMart. I wait out in the car if my friends insist on going there, and then they hate it anyway because I lecture them the rest of the car ride.

The first WalMart they built here, I walked toward the door and found a group of union folks picketing. I said, "What's up?" and they handed me a couple flyers. I left and checked out the info and they were telling the truth.

Now I walk into my friendly little corner market (they all know me very well) and say, "fuck WalMart!!" I pay more, but with all the things I've seen about WalMart, well, I'd rather pay more money and keep the little guy in business just a bit longer.

6. I only shopped there because I absolutely had to...

the only time I could go shopping most of the time was at 4 in the morning. Nothin' else open. :(
