10. Good article, but there is no solution.
Wal-Mart unionizes and the company raises prices. Sales drop and Wal-Mart fires workers. Wal-Mart becomes more and more like K-Mart. And the company immediately blames labor laws in their public statements, and say that labor brings "high prices."

How do you counter corporate buccaneers like Wal-Mart? I haven't heard a good solution yet that didn't involve rioting and killing everybody in Wal-Mart management. (Which, by the way, I think is an enjoyable solution but not very practical.)
