oh right, this argument. the thing is that the low-wage, low-benefit, low-security jobs provided by das uberkorporations like Wal-Mart aren't just conjuring up jobs in a vacuum. instead, they're *replacing* the secure, health-insurance-providing, well-paid union jobs that our families fought for really hard in the midwest. see, we're not peeved at the idea of giving people jobs, but rather at the general reordering of our economy in a way that helps corporate fat cats and screws everybody else.

Awesome video man. Speaks the truth. Is there a manuscript of the video available online somewhere? I am doing a research paper on walmart at the moment, and I'd like to reference your story, if it's possible. I too found it on stumble video, by the way.

there is no transcript that we've written out, no, but you can feel free to quote whatever you'd like from it. or if you do take the time to write it all down, send us a note or post it in a comment. :) We won't take the video down, so you can reference the URL without worry as well. in terms of who we are, you can check out more info at meerkatmedia [dot] org. good luck with the paper! we'd love to hear how it all turns out.
