Update:
Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the world's largest retailer, denied a report Friday that it had pressured employees to vote against Democrats in November
because of worries that a bill the party supports would make it easier for workers to unionize.
They are not going to admit this, but from working in Wal-Mart management makes sure there is no talk of Unions period.

Well, yeah. Most people shop at Wal-Mart because of the low prices. Their profit margin is really not very big, so if they have to pay more, they have
to raise their prices. Then fewer people would want to shop there because they wouldn't have lower prices any more.
