More political extortion from the left:
The teacher is convinced the retail giant isn't paying workers a fair wage, but in the northeastern Washington town of Colville -- population 5,000 -- the only other option is a small stationery section in the local grocery store. [snip]
Taking a bold political stand, the state teachers' union last week declared the fund off-limits to Wal-Mart purchases. [snip]
In a newsletter distributed to teachers, association President Charles Hasse cited Wal-Mart's "exploitative labor practices (that) have added to public assistance burdens in our state and across the nation." [snip]
These people are so myopic and naive, it's really hard to believe they were sharp enough to obtain a degree. Who do they think this is going to hurt anyway. In an ill conceived effort to hurt the company, they will, if anything, end up hurting the people they are trying to "protect". For the sake of our kids education, I hope none of them is teaching economics.

The illiberals love to make this charge, but never offer concrete proof of what they're alleging.
