Hillary and Wal-Mart


A-ha! I knew we couldn't trust her!

Hillary Clinton served for 6 years on the board of Wal-Mart, the union-busting behemoth, not only the largest private employer in the country, but the world's richest public corporation, with fewer than 40% of its workers covered by the company's inadequate health plan. http://www.wakeupwalmart.com/facts/#healthcare

So that's why she's been such a strong supporter of free trade with China! Wal-Mart, despite its original "Buy American" advertising campaign, is the single largest U.S. importer, with half of its imports coming from China*.

(*You know, China, of "lead-laced toys, tainted snack food, and deadly poisonous pet food" fame.)
