Funny I know two women that work at home Depot they left for Walmart where they both received a pay increase. Facts

Anecdotal evidence is better than actual evidence now everyone. Explain to me if Walmart is so great why do they have to literally have an anti union hotline (Illegal) and literally hold programs telling their employees to go on welfare and food stamps because their employees are paid such low wages they can't afford to live on their earnings.

Hey just a crazy thought. You don't like your salary. Get a new job.

Can't do that if Walmart destroyed local businesses through their anti competitive practices.

OK. Tell me how pressuring workers into working off the clock, stifling unionization (which is illegal BTW), and paying your workers such low wages that they are forced to rely on food stamps that you avoid paying taxes for through loopholes is NOT exploiting employees.

Try a non biased search engine. There's plenty for and against. This isn't your identity. Relax and let's all have a level headed discussion. There's plenty of similar type employment out there and in don't think anyone is forcing someone to work there.

They wouldn't get paid more with local shops

Okay, so I'll bite.

What literally is the law that Walmart is literally breaking by having it's managers report any unionizing activity by their employees?

Why do you not want Walmart to "hold programs telling their employees to go on welfare and food stamps"? That hurts the employees and saves Walmart money. You'd prefer them to not help their employees?
