I resent the implication made by "PAY UP" that those who would oppose Wal-Mart must be well off.
If you take a look at the various towns around the country that have rejected having a Wal-Mart pollute their community, you'll find a lot of poor/low-income folks... people who know what it means to be stuck in a shitty little town where the most powerful employer around is a giant, oppressive, soul-sucking corporation.
Many people who oppose Wal-Mart don't have much in the way of money or options, but they realize that Wal-Mart isn't going to improve things for them individually or for their community.
