    Dispatches from Wal-Mart's Front Lines By Stan Cox, AlterNet
    "Whenever a union rep comes around to the store we are forbidden to even acknowledge him/her. If we are caught speaking to any one of them we are automatically terminated! They basically put down the reason for dismissal as anything they want, to avoid any publicity about the union or Wal-Mart's fight against one. The store constantly has videos and pamphlets about why we would not want a union and why it is so bad to belong to one."
