Wal-Mart has surprisingly settled dozens of lawsuits about wage practices because it is afraid of what is going to happen in an Obama administration.  This is great news and shows the power of electing a democratic administration.

Wal-Mart is a good barometer of the labor movement in the country. Wal-Mart has a long history of abusing employees by making them skip meals and work “off the clock”.  There have also been documentation of discrimination in promotions, and union busting.

Wal-Mart has a long history of scaring employees to not vote for Democrats, not to organize into unions, and not to complain about working conditions.  Wal-Mart calls their employees “associates” but it should call them “slaves”.  Wal-Mart not only pays their worker poorly but they also explain to newly hired workers how to apply for social programs.  The health care is so expensive that ordinary workers cannot afford it.  As a result, most Wal-Mart employees have little, if any, health care.

There is an excellent film detailing Wal-Mart’s abuse of employees and how the U.S. government and taxpayers subsidize Wal-Mart.

Also, Wal-Mart stocks its stores with products that are not made in the U.S. — most notably from China.  Thus, as Americans shop at Wal-Mart they are destroying U.S. industries.

America is doomed.
