Broken Hallelujah

This is Wal-Mart The Movie documentary premiere week. Don Hazen (Alternet) organized an impressive editorial collaboration around our film release: Harold Meyerson profiles whistleblower Jim Bill Lynn for the American Prospect, Christopher Hayes tackles Wal-Mart's union busting for In These Times, Joshua Holland investigates Wal-Mart's China Price for Alternet, Liza Featherstone sniffs out the Wal-Mart Money Trail in The Nation, and Greg LeRoy reveals the Wal-Mart Tax for Alternet.

To support Wal-Mart or to NOT support Wal-Mart? Has Wal-Mart affected your community directly? I've lived in small towns with sky rocketing unemployment that embraced Wal-Mart royally for the jobs it brought. But it later leads to the closing of many home grown stores. Then there's the ties between the Democrats and Wal-Mart. Therein lies the dichotomy.
