Walmart can be extremely devastating to the character of existing quiet, established communities and especially to Mom and Pop small businesses.

Don't forget to pay your union dues this month.

The innovator and now king of progressive persuasion video is Brave New Films [producer of Walmart: The High Cost Of Low Prices] and its visionary helmsman Robert Greenwald, who segued from a career in Hollywood to position himself as the go-to-guy with political video, with a huge presence on the Internet.

When AlterNet did its reader poll of the most influential progressives last year, some of the readers' picks, such as Bill Moyers, Michael Moore and Amy Goodman, were obvious and expected. In a sense there were only three newcomers (people who have made their mark in the past 10 years) in the top echelon -- Rachel Maddow, Arianna Huffington, and the biggest surprise, Robert Greenwald. In the past decade, Greenwald has carved out an important niche, and in effect he is the first primarily Internet-based progressive star to break through.

Excuse me?
For the record I am opposed to practically everything that unions represent in general, and public sector unions in particular.
I like that Walmart is non-union, but I have never liked Walmart enough to have ever shopped there.
I have never been a union member, rather I have always been a business owner since graduate school. Two businesses in fact, neither of which is a competitor to what Walmart peddles.
That having been said, your ignorant crack goes unappreciated. The complexity of the thread issue apparently exceeds your capacity to comprehend.
