Harold, as the self professed great humanitarian that you claim to be,

It's not like the Wal-mart employees have a lot of choices.

My assumption assumes several possibilities:

A more worker-friendly company may bid on wal-mart's stores and fixed
assets after the chain goes belly-up because it cannot satisfy a huge
judgment, and, if Wal-Mart goes belly-up, the event alone may revitalize
Main Street and smaller shows in communities everywhere.

There is a third assumption that is even more unlikely: The
asssumption that Wal-Mart will lose the suit. *I wouldn't bet a nickle
on it.

It's a class action lawsuit. Walmart will settle, the sleazy lawyers
will get rich, and the plaintiffs will each get a $15 gift card to...
wait for it... Walmart.

Or it gets tossed.
