    Might just be leftist rhetoric too, IDK.

    Wal-Mart hires droves of unskilled laborers. What kind of health care did they have before.

    Last study, commisioned by Wally World themselves an done by respected ecomomists concluded that once a Walmart comes to town the average standard of living and take home pay diminishes.
    post a link to the study. Studies only reflect the data that they make assumptions for, thus a conclusion is worthless without the parametes of which it reflects.

      Really? Post a study showing that unemployment levels drop and/or overall employment numbers go up when Walmart comes to town. Otherwise it's not unskilled labourers getting beeter conditions. It's others in the workforce having to accept what's offered.

              gt didnt you notice that all the things posted on the walmart site are owned by nps? nps in other words is bob long, empire (halos), diablo, 32 degrees. going factory direct with those is going to national.

                Sersiously,
                None of those sorces are worth the paper they are written on. I will see what I can find in peer reviewed research.

                  I don't think there's much of a risk for this. If you were gonna go vandalize some stuff, would you rather buy a $50 Brass Eagle and a $10 CO2 tank or a $300 Promaster and $150 N2 tank?
