Harold, as the self professed great humanitarian that you claim to be,
how could you take any pleasure in Wal-mart going out of business,
thus putting hundreds of thousands of hard working people out on the
unemployment line? Is it because they may be non-union, and in your
warped view of the world, don't deserve to have jobs?

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.

Well, I am assuming Wal-Mart will buy the verdict, but there is always
hope. So far, apparently all there is is a path to a class action suit.

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.

Gee, I dont know about that. my Daughter (while 7 mths pregnant)
slipped on an "un posted" just rinsed floor at our Walmart. She got a
Gift Card for $200.00 . She also had to sign a " No Reproach " form as
well.
