Never participated in it, never will. Guenwyfar "Karma is like a rubberband.. it can only stretch so far before it comes back and smacks you in the face."

"Religion is like a penis, it's fine to have one and be proud of it, but when you take it out and wave it in my face, that's when we have a problem." |

The brave act of going out on strike also comes with an economic cost. By making a donation, you can help to ensure that Walmart strikers receive a $50 grocery gift card.

People are deciding to not even buy anything at Christmas or make any purchases of goods beyong food and fuel in the coming year as a form of protest. I read many companies are doing this too as far as buying equipment or upgrading anything. This will get crazy! I wonder if prices for cool stuff will hit bottom if fewer are buying? I likes stuff! Yay STUFF!!! |

Do you think walmart had it bad recompensating women, they would put themselves out of business. Their best bet is to close all their stores and move out of the country. Talk about a job stimilus resulting, small business would sprink to life. |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 24425839 11/11/2012 11:00 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Ok, if you work at Wal-Mart or fast food, you expect your hours to be less than full time and no insurance. If they strike, there is so much unemployment out there, that the company can easily find someone else willing to work. Soon, the gov't will have to cut back on the extended unemployment benefits. Have you heard of the financial cliff? These people strike and they get fired, then they have minimum amount of time on unemployment then they find another job that is part time and without health care insurance. So what will change? |
