i personally refuse to shop there...mostly that's a statement of my socio-economic class, but also 'cause walmart is a dingy piece o' crap.
the article makes several deserved points-walmart markets artifically low prices, and is capable of putting way too much pressure on other companies, not to mention individuals.
that they've been busted, repeatedly, for underpaying workers is what does it for me. there's a case up here in MN where they would force people to work unpaid overtime, or lose their job to an undocumented immigrant. pretty shitty choice if you're poor enough to be working at walmart.
