Walmart has already denied the Union rumors. But some of these stores do have the strongest union support.

I remember when I was a kid and my dad was the local wrecker guy he hauled in a Corvette once that a woman had died in to our body shop. Man that car stunk.

The old "Death Car"?

I don't see how a unionizing attempt would be a threat in an at-will/right to work state...the company can't be forced into an agreement and there are plenty of people who will gladly work outside of a union.

Maybe my theory should then include Walmart shutting down stores with a high level of activism over wages.

They closed 5 stores in 4 different states- OK, TX, FL, CA.

Employees of the Pico Rivera store were among the first to hold Black Friday protests in 2012. "This is the first store that went on strike," an employee told CBS Los Angeles. "This is the first store in demanding changes for Walmart".

If you don't like working there. Leave. Nothing to do with her or her dumb books.

No kidding. Freakin' employees ought to be glad they have a job. All that workplace safety and decent wages were things of the old America. Don't these ingrates know they're competing with Third-World countries now?
