I'll have to watch this documentary. I never shop at Wal-Mart but it sounds very interesting.

LOL that would be hilarious. I wish I could pay like a one time fee and watch it online or something. I'm gonna look into it. I'm sure I can always rent it.

it's nothing crazy, but a good look at what Walmart does to local competition and their staff. I try not to buy brands like Nike these days too with all their child labour allegations but I wear brands like Lacoste, Polo and Aldo shoes...who's to say they aren't produced the same way as Nike shoes?

All of these corporations are guilty of practices like that, but Walmart surely takes the cake. They're evil on so many levels.

I never like to shop at Wal-Mart anyways. I hate the fact that it's taking over cities aswell and knocking out older small family owned business'. We can only hope that people from our or at least my generation realize what monster corporations like this are doing to our country and get rid of them. Reasons like this and so many others make me want to get into politics so there is at least some change or if not an oppinion about it. It'd at least be a start.

The sooner Wal-Mart gets unionized the better it is for everybody. Asking a company that makes over $300,000,000,000.00 (that's Billion) a year to pay for benefits and a decent wage is way over due.
Wal-Mart is no better than the industrial companies in the early 1900's.
When everybody else can make decent wages why can't retail employee's? Look at manual labourers, car workers, factory workers, government employee's, etc. None of those companies make as much as Wal-Mart yet treat their employee's fairly. (Decent wage and benefits.)

For the record I am generally right wing but recognize unfairness when I see it.

Anybody got something against Subways? I'm about to go eat there.

Yeah, got food poisoning there once. It was so bad I had to take a taxi home as I wouldn't have made it on the TTC.
But that was long ago and every store is independantly run.
