It has been said that facts are hard things. In the case of union thugs and the moronic “fight for fifteen” campaign that demands a $15 minimum wage for new workers without skills or an established work ethic, what it means is far fewer jobs and businesses finding new ways to automate. One example is the Wal-Mart store in Los Angeles Chinatown, a depressed area that has few, if any, large grocery stores and limited jobs to offer the citizens of the area.
For many years, the main shopping venues in the Chinatown were high priced liquor stores that carried limited grocery items and convenience stores, also with a very limited range of products. Finally, in September of 2013, Wal-Mart opened a 33,000 sq foot grocery and drug store in the area, and the locals flocked to the store for lower prices and a much better selection of goods. Also drawn to the store were the union hacks who demanded their piece of the pie. The union’s also bused in a union funded “ecology” group who protested against Wal-Mart for destroying the downtown area. Of course the “ecology” group would evaporate once Wal-Mart was unionized, but over 100 Wal-Mart workers preferred a steady job and better prices and selection, so they refused to support the union pressure.

No surprise there!!

Close all of them. Then mom and pop shops can open back up
They are two different people.
There’s the male president and CEO of Walmart then the woman is the CEO of SAMs
It’s funny when liberals try to beat or out maneuver rich people. All they do is make things worse for poor people. But then they blame it on “the rich” to keep getting the votes. So fucking lame. People nowadays just want something for nothing. This country’s population used to have a strong work ethic and the desire to be successful, but with all the free$#%&!@*being handed out to lazy$#%&!@* sorry$#%&!@*people, this republic won’t stand much longer.
People should have better pay
Do your homework folks. They are offering to relocate employees who wish to, from closed stores. Also…… they are building many more stores, not just closing stores. Don’t be quick to condemn, of what you know nothing of.
Saw that coming!
A wake up call!
