You people just don't understand. That isn't against the OP in any way but you folks don't understand the wal-mart.
Please explain!
In my view, certain people will invariably despise the successes of others. no matter what the success may be.
For example.
Bill Gates is a particularly favored target of the miserable and jealous.
In that vein, Walmart, the world's largest retailer which among other things, eliminated the product distributor( middle man) by instituting direct buying policy.
The company made land deals in decaying areas of cities, built new stores which attracted new development in surrounding areas battling back the spread of urban blight.
Built stores in unserved or underserved rural areas.
There are a myriad of other companies and individuals who've by their own aforethought and ability to think outside the box, become successful.
So what?
Oh.....But Walmart also has the one thing that really pisses off some people in certain areas of the country. That is the anti-union stance of the company.
It comes as no surprise that pro union activists and operatives make up the bulk of these so called protests.
The way I see it these protests are an annoyance. Shoppers just want to get into the store and do their thing without being hassled by these ne'er-do-wells.
