Always Low Tactics. Always.

Ryan Sager says unions don't represent workers:
in saving unionized grocery stores from Wal-Mart, the unions are also ensuring that working-class Americans -- the people who shop at the store when local governments let them -- pay higher prices on everything from groceries to underwear to DVDs.



Union officials in New York, for their part, even admit that their members would love to be able to shop at Wal-Mart.



"Teachers and all kinds of working people shop Wal-Mart," Brian McLaughlin, president of the New York City Central Labor Council, acknowledged as he kicked off an anti-Wal-Mart rally recently in Greenwich Village.



And why do they do this? "They don't understand the costs," he said.

You'll notice that these Blue communities that zone out Wal-Mart are generally miserable places for poor and middle income people to live.Why do unions hate ordinary people so much?
