WalMart -- Bad For Workers And Bad For Business


WaPo carries a great column by Harold Myerson on what's wrong with America's economy. Go read the whole thing. Here's just a snippet:

Wal-Mart's reach extends into manufacturing and shipping as well. Thousands of workers have been let go at Kraft, Lynn shows, due to the economies that Wal-Mart forced on the company. Of Wal-Mart's 10 top suppliers in 1994, four have filed bankruptcies.

NYT has more dismal news on the economy. As usual, they give Bush a pass.
