Re: Northern California Grocery Strike (none / 0)

Look at the real picture.  The Grocery stores didn't go after the union in a vacuum then did it because faced with competition with Wallmart they would lose out because their cost structure doesn't allow them to compete with Wallmart.

End result Union keeps its jobs for a few years then Wallmart cleans house and all those jobs are lost forever.

Pass laws that make it easy to organize unions and the Walmart problem disappears.

Or organize a boycott of wallmart.

Or get other stores to match prices for 6 weeks and everyone boycotts wallmart for 6 weeks over wages.

etc.

Or get supliers to boycot wallmart.

Or get legislation that any store selling more goods from China than from USA must offer  X dollars per hour and X hours per week to X percent of its employees.
