"Which one is 'better' for America ? "
I'll give you the standard FReeper reply:
WalMart because:
#1 - I hate unions.
#2 - Working poor? Too bad, get a second, or third job, I did.
#3 - I hate unions.
#4 - It will push people to be more competitive.
#5 - I hate unions.
#6 - I can get cheap crap at WalMart, so if it's good for me, it's good for America.
And finally,
#7 - I hate unions.

That line of thought is pretty scary, but exists in great numbers here.
"I find it odd that foreign auto companies come here, are unionized, and they make a good profit."
Who says they are unionized?? ...Toyoya, Nissan and the like finds ways to use non-union labor, to squeeze everthing from the unprotected worker.
It didn't work out so well in Canton, Mississippi, did it?
