According to
Fortune
Magazine,
Wal-Mart is
now the
world's
biggest
private
employer
dwarfing
other US
mega-employers
like the US
Postal
Service,
McDonald's,
and IBM.
Although
it's
practically
a state
secret
within the
much-propagandized
US, Wal-Mart
is known
worldwide
for its
brutal labor
practices.
Not bad if
your frame
of reference
is digging
coal in a
Chinese coal
mine, but
certainly
not what one
would expect
from a
successful
First World
company.
Wal-Mart's
treatment of
its
employees is
so egregious
that many
countries,
including
China, would
not let
Wal-Mart do
business
within their
borders
unless
company
permitted
its
in-country
labor force
to be
unionized.
Slaves on
the Chinese
side making
the stuff
and slaves
on the US
side
stocking the
shelves and
running the
cash
registers.
The perfect
New World
Order
enterprise.
It's
reported
that when
Sam Walton
founder of
the company
died, his
good friend,
George H.W.
Bush, the
president's
father,
openly wept.
I believe
it.
In some ways
Wal-Mart
is the ideal
New World
Order
corporation.
Its campaign
of total
surveillance
of its
workers,
specifically
to stamp out
unionization
efforts
before they
can take
hold is
particularly
noteworthy.
But that's
just the tip
of the
iceberg.
Here's a
peek behind
the Iron
Wal-Mart
curtain:
