People in CA pay a Hell of a lot more than that for the non-working
citizens, so I don't mind paying for people that are working. BTW
University of California, Berkeley, now there's a non biased study on
corportations. LOL

Do you have any facts to prove that the University of California at Berkeley
is biased? Please cite them.

Every newspaper in California on any given day. One of the most liberal,
ridiculous cities in the US. Santa Cruz and San Francisco run close
seconds though. LOL

ECONOMY - WAL-MART IS NO BARGAIN: CBS News reports Americans are paying a
stiff price for bargains at the mega corporation Wal-Mart. According to a
recent University of California, Berkeley study, Wal-Mart actually takes a
lot more from communities than it gives back in low prices. "Because of

the
low wages and because people do not have health insurance through their
employer, people rely on public support to make ends meet," says the
school's Ken Jacobs. In California, taxpayers pay an estimated $82-million

a
year to take care of health care, food stamps, and other social services

for
Wal-Mart employees.



The bigger issue is all the smaller stores, and mom and pop shops gone
from the neighborhoods, some of which are now ghost towns. Is it worth the
cheaper prices? What happens when the net sellers put Walmart out of
business?
