[Lefty48197]

Frontline (PBS) is scheduled to run a special on Walmart, and how their push for lower prices, ends up pushing American jobs to China. Tuesday Nov 16, 9 P.M. on PBS.

"If people were only consumers, buying things at lower prices would be just good. But people also are workers who need to earn a decent standard of living," says economist Larry Michel of the Economic Policy Institute. "The dynamics that create lower prices at Wal-Mart and other places are also undercutting the ability of many, many workers to earn decent wages and benefits and have a stable life."

5. I have a webpage

devoting to buying American. see www.noslaves.com/consumer.htm

There are links that have massive databases, if BJ's aren't there,
just email the website, I'm sure they will dig it out for you.

6. Don't Buy Anything From Walmart

Walmart's merchandise is from China and other countries-not ours!Let's support companies that actually manufacture in America and support American workers. This is an old concept. I never understood why my father always said "Buy American" in the 60's and 70's until now. It isn't enough to say "buy American" now -today it is also buy American and not from a company that outsources and pays(retail) American employees peanuts!

7. Remember: Sams Club and Walmart are the same thing. Shop at Costco.

Costco has a very good record of supporting working families.
