    Wal-Mart is our largest employer and as such other companies follow their lead in the way it treats its employees. It has a ripple effect throughout the economy. As working people, union or not, we all have a stake in this struggle. Supporting this strike is essential

    Wal-Mart’s “low prices” are passed on to the rest of us. Their low prices are a sham; they abuse their workers AND ME. I SUPPORT THE WALK-OUT BY WAL-MART EMPLOYEES

    From the owners on down to top management they have shown time and time again that they view their work force as de facto SLAVE LABOR. Most of the products they sell are MADE IN CHINA. Most workers have NO HEALTH CARE. These same conditions existed in 1900 in America until UNIONS ORGANIZED and confronted the INJUSTICE.

    In 1950, one in three workers belonged to a union and it ushered in 30 years of spectacular growth both for Businesses-Factories and the MIDDLE CLASS. But today, less than one worker in ten belongs to a union and look at what WALMART gets away with.

    It’s disgraceful the way they treat fellow Americans. They should be ashamed of themselves but I’m sure they have forgotten what that emotion feels like.

    SUPPORT THE WALKOUT. SUPPORT THE STRIKERS. IT COULD BE YOUR JOB NEXT.

    When WalMart fails to provide Living wages, affordable medical plans, and portable retirement plans , taxpayers end up subsidizing WalMart, When its workers have to get emergency medical care because their plan sucks, or they retire when they wear out are injured, and only have social security, they then need welfare/SSI. WalMart needs to take responsibility for their workers instead of putting it on taxpayer backs.

    American workers need sustaining jobs. Cheaper stuff sold on the backs of underpaid workers is destroying America!

    Stay away from Walmart until they get a clue and clean up their act and treat workers like human beings.


    Don’t waste your money buying from cheap chislers at WalMart!


    Gotta be crazy to work and go on welfare just “to be employed” at Walmart, and more crazy, still, to buy their junky products.
    Reduced quality for reduced prices = no savings at all at WalMart.


    I used to depend on them for work clothes and children’s clothes, but the pants and shirts fell apart at the seams or wore out very quickly. Their WalMart Reebok shoes soon bent 90 degrees and wore out, too.

    It wouldn’t hurt Walmart to pay their workers a living wage. They are making billions off the backs of the working poor and middle class. It’s time to have some of that wealth “trickle down” to the employees who make Walmart work.

    Walmart can easily afford to treat their employees better—but instead, they resort to intimidation and retaliation. I support Walmart employees who are bravely insisting that Walmart treat them better. I will not shop at Walmart on Black Friday.

    I will not shop at a WalMart. I will not cross a picket line. I may carry a sign & walk if picketers have an extra.
