Supporting Wal Mart

I must say that Wal Mart is not my favorite store for several reasons. I even boycotted Wal Mart for an entire year when we lived in Texas - I was fed up with their lack of customer service. Now that we live in a very small town, Wal Mart is one of the few places to shop. Besides, the local Wal Mart is much better than those in Texas.

A few days ago I discovered a great reason to support Wal Mart . . . because the NEA is boycotting Wal Mart saying they need to wake up. Wal Mart is anti-public education. . . .YEA! Here's what the NEA had to say

Think you just got a bargain on those rolled back prices? Think again. You may have just helped break unions and dismantle public schools.

The company has drained billions from public coffers รข€” money that could otherwise fund schools. And the Walton family, multi-billionaires thanks to Wal-Mart and Sam's Club profits, contribute heavily to anti-public education efforts like private school voucher initiatives and anti-public educations PACs.
