No. Wal-Mart has the wrong political mindset. The Obama administration will let them go down without caring how many employees are put out of a job....after all, they weren't unionized, so they don't count to Obama.

Wait a minute there John in OK, a Wal-Mart heir donated a large sum of money to Obumblers campaign so don't think that they might not be saved if they are in trouble.

Hostess employees insisted on continuing a strike, even as management noted that the company couldn't survive a prolonged union action. Now the employees won't have jobs at all, as their action has forced the company to liquidate.

On Black Friday, some Wal-Mart employees are planning on staging a walkout to protest alleged retaliation for employees who criticize the company. (Not surprisingly, union organizers -- angry that Wal-Mart isn't unionized -- are behind a lot of the controversy.)

Perhaps what all these petulant employees don't realize is that companies are in business to earn a profit.  If they can't, there...
