Here is a great Op-Ed on Walmart:

We need Wal-Mart unionized immediately.  I urge everyone to refuse to shop there until it is.  This is the poster-child for why unions are still needed today:

"Wal-Mart fails at least five out of 10 criteria set by the Worker Rights Consortium"

I do not shop there, and will not until they improve, I urge you not to as well.  Also, please find a way to join in on:

"Andy Stern, president of the Service Employees International Union, will soon begin a national effort to "bring Wal-Mart up to standards we can live with." He envisions a nationwide movement bringing together the unions, churches, community organizations and environmentalists who are already standing up to the company's recklessly metastatic growth."
