Ask John Edwards about minimum wage, health benefits and retirment plans. What do you think he will tell you? He is for the working man right? He hs chided Wal-Mart in the past. In a recent conference call with the union that represents workers he told how his son stood up for the working man by reprimanding a fellow student for buying goods at Wal-Mart.
Sounds good right.
Well think again, John had an aide call Wal-Mart trying to reserve a Playstation 3 for him. Now there are three problems with this.
1. The average working man cannot afford the Playstation 3 as the average working man needs higher wages.
2. Does John feel special and that he should have the PS3 before the average working man, that Wal-Mart should honor a special request from a rich lawyer?
3. The most damning, he is supporting how Wal-Mart does business, treats employees, yet in the next breath condems them for these practices.
Way to go John Edwards, you are a Waste Of My Oxygen.
Note – This in no way reflects my opinion of Wal-Mart’s practices in employee relations/compenstation, it is solely about Mr. Edwards.
