UPDATE: Wal-Mart employees strike!
One of the reasons I refuse to shop at Wal-Mart is that they treat their employees so badly. Wal-Mart does this mostly out of naked “Gordon Gecko” style greed.
Now we’re seeing something different: Businesses threatening to lay-off workers or cut their hours because they’re pissed about Obama’s having been elected or about having to provide insurance coverage. This is political. It’s the follow-up on the threats these creeps made against their employees just before the election. It’s the Big Business equivalent of the congressional campaign announced by Mitch McConnell: that is, to make sure that Obama and his policies would fail.
And there’s no way in hell this stuff isn’t coordinated, albeit informally.
So what I would like to see is an equally coordinated effort to publish the names of these businesses. That way we’ll know where to eat and shop and such. Remember anti-gay Chick-fil-A? “
