Hillary was on the board of directors at Walmart. So much for it being right-wing.

“Hillary was on the board of directors at Walmart. So much for it being right-wing.”

This was a point of discussion on my MBA papers concerning Wal-Mart. Companies retain noted left-wingers as insurance against left-wing attackers. They pay up to several hundred thousand dollars per year to noted politicians, most of whom NEVER attend a meeting. They use them to call the lefties bothering them and apply pressure. If you’re running Greenpeace and Hillary calls to ask you kindly to stop harassing somebody, chances are you’ll pick another target. It’s protection money, pure and simple.

Walmart made the list because big labor says so and if you argue with them you sleep with the fishes.

She was also on the board of TCBY. They sold a good product, so she obviously had nothing to do with it. Lots of competition now. Little yogurt shoppes everywhere.

That is Standard Operating Procedure in Democrat Politics. Michelle was on the Board of Tree House Foods in IL. The Governors spouse or Senators spouse gets a seat at the table and a cool $100K plus stock options for keeping the skids greased. How do you think Michelle Qualified for a $300K per year no show job in Chicago? Democrat State Senators in Ohio all have a spouse working for the Ohio Lottery at $65,000+ per year for 'supervisor' positions. No one ever sees them and they do no work. Hillary and Bill are crooked, Obama & Michelle are crooked, Democrats are crooked, what's new?

Hillary was on Walmart’s Board a long time ago, when it was a profitable venture when Bubba was king of Arkansas.

It isn’t about being “right-wing”.

It’s about the fact that most Walmart’s pay their workers approximately $12-$15/hr over the minimum wage - depending on the state min wage, and the type of job.

Also, Walmart provides medical to all full-time workers.

So, while the left is screaming for higher wages, they are protesting Walmart who already pays a higher wage. No logical reason needed as far as the left is concerned.

Wal*Mart was founded by Sam Walton who was conservative and believed in American made products... once he died, it became Chinese made junk store...

No, she was not on the board of directors. She was one of the lawyers representing a Walmart case at one time.
