| 25. I don't see a reason to boycott Wal-Mart. |

Edited on Thu Nov-27-03 02:43 PM by durutti
I won't boycott any store unless a union specifically calls for a boycott. Sure, Wal-Mart sucks, but boycotts often hurt workers just as much (if not more than) owners and management.
Another thing: while Wal-Mart is terrible, it's no more terrible than Target or K-Mart.
