Hi Ron, The really disgusting and sleazy aspect of Wal-Mart's campaign is that they paid petition gatherers $10/hour in order to support a malevolent corporation that intends to bust the clerk's and warehousemen's unions and lower wages in Inglewood to $8/hr. with no benefits, while dumping the responsibility for the inevitable crises the employees will suffer on the city and county's social safety net for things like emergency/catastrophic/chronic health care, food stamps, etc. Wal-Mart is about the sleaziest operator in American bidness today. Accepting no responsibility, and sneaking around telling employees how to use the welfare system to fill in the gaps that Walmart fails to provide. And in the meanwhile, collectively, the four children of Sam Walton are worth more than $80 Billion. They are hypocritical greedheads of the worst sort. And of course, big supporters of their puppet in the White House.
