I have a confession to make about Walmart: it has never been where I prefer to shop. I believe I have been in a Walmart store three times in 46 years. But, I will make a point to buy something from their website for Christmas. Walmart is one of the greatest American success stories in history, it is the quintessential American dream: one man from a small town worked his hands to the bone and gave the people what they want: low prices. For years, Walmart--not Target, not Nordtsrom, nor Macy's--has been under attack by collectivists. To watch what Ayn Rand accurately called "looters"--these union extortionists like Andy Stern--pay people to picket in an effort to stop other people from shopping at Walmart simply sickens me. The SEIU, the extortionist group who leads a lot of efforts like this, is run by people who make huge money by quite literally building nothing and standing on the backs of people who are often forced to hand over percentages of their paychecks to the unionist gaggle of takers in union headquarters. Union heads leach onto the paychecks of people who are working what are (and in a healthy economy should be) entry-level jobs and the SEIU does everything they can to make those low-wage jobs permanent because the extortionists at the SEIU make more money for every person who they can pack into low wage jobs. Walmart isn't where I like to shop, but this Christmas they will get some of my business because I stand with the free will over force and invention over coercion. -TH for PR.
