Some Wal-mart employees planning a strike/walkout

Isn't Montana kinda like Hawaii ? People think because you can get $15 per hour bagging groceries you're making a living wage.
When you look around and find that minimal housing is going to be $ 1400 per month you still have a hard time covering the basics.

I read an article that stated they are practically giving housing away if you come there to work and these are 50,000 or better jobs.. If I really needed a job texas or montana wouls be where I would be..

Seems like a simple solution. Walmart employees have every right to protest, and Walmart should have every right to replace them. It isn't like they didn't know it was retail when they started working there.
As far as comparing expediting, If it doesn't pay enough, we don't haul it. If it was continous, we take our toys and go play somewhere else. If Walmart employees don't like their situation, go somewhere that you like. Really no different.

Interesting on the cheap housing. I haven't followed it closely as I am not in the market for a job.

I remember reading that lower cost house was a problem for Vail Co and I know it was a problem the year I lived in Hawaii.

YUP sounds right

Sounds like a good reason not to live there.
