Walmart Workers Say No To Unionization

First of all let me make it clear that I believe that Unions had their place in America. I believe they are responsible for vastly improving working conditions in this country. But the days of usefulness passed a long time ago. Today they are nothing more than political action groups who use union "dues" from unsuspecting members to fund left-leaning legislation and candidates.

The Associated Press Reports:

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (WMT) on Friday said workers at its Colorado tire shop have voted to reject union representation, a step which deals another blow to efforts to unionize at the world's largest retailer.

A Wal-Mart statement said tire and lube express associates at its Loveland supercenter voted 17-1 to reject representation by the United Food & Commercial Workers Union.
