Watched "Walmart, The Cost of Low Prices"

OMG I had no idea. The sad thing is, it is one of the biggest employers, if not the biggest in my town.

Since Nevada is a "right to work state" we have crappy wages in most every sector, with horrible health insurance benefits. Before I moved to NV, I lived all my adult life in Hawaii, and I thought every state was like them... full paid medical benefits if you work over 20 hours a week, and you are entitled after the first month. And, employers must give you a choice. I got a rude wakeup call when I went to work for a casino and found out I had to work 6 months before I got health insurance, and then I had to pay about 1/2 the premium cost.

I have a better health insurance plan now being self insured then I had at any job I worked at in this state, which is a sad fact.

I'll have to watch out for the film. Is it just on TV, or could I find it at the video rental store?
