I haven't seen the documentary that you're referring to, but I am interested in seeing it. The few people I know that work for Walmart seem satisfied there. Don't know anything about Papa Johns though. I will say this, I know that Walmart in the past has received negative press in the past for how they treat their workers, but it is my understanding that in recent years they've tried to change that. I've even heard negative things about Krogers from some of it's employees, but I still shop there. I gotta eat and need other basics and they (Kroger, Walmart, Target, Meijer, and others) provide, depending on where I'm at and what I need. Like you I'm all for better treatment for employees, but I'm not a union guy either. I've got mixed opinions on the topic and I guess not strong enough opinion any of the places to warrant a boycott. Like I said to each their own.
Its my opinion that if your employeer is treating you that bad its on YOU to go find another job...
And while Walmart sells a lot of made in china stuff so does everywhere else and normally at higher prices.
I could quit going to Walmart but it wouldn't matter to them. it would only hurt my wallet.
But if you really look deep at the world the reason most of it is the way it is is the demand of the consumer. Wanting easier access faster service and cheaper prices
