I don't know about labor practices, nor am I informed about any local lawsuits against Walmart. But I have seen this - in Walmart, the elderly are employed, and I haven't seen that in Target, K-Mart, Sears, Home Depot, or any other localized outlets. And in suburban America, that is vitally important.
So in the desire to kick Wal-Mart, let's deal with their "hire the elderly" policy as well. They give jobs to those who need it, and in their later years. The elderly don't care about unions and the like, they just need a job that will provide for their financial needs. You can argue about labor and market practices, but at least, Wal-Mart hires the elderly.
