“Blocking this merger would only serve to strengthen larger, non-unionized retailers like Walmart, Costco and Amazon, by allowing them to maintain and increase their overwhelming and growing dominance of the grocery industry. In contrast, Kroger and Albertsons Companies merging will bring lower prices to more customers, strengthen and create good-paying union jobs, and bring more fresh, affordable food to more communities,” the company said in an email.

Said the lying liars.

good-paying union jobs

I can tell you right now that the union that kroger has/uses is ass. I was working for them about 9 years ago and was only making $8 an hour by the time I left. The raises were yearly and you had no say in them.

They also just went through a large, highly publicized fight with their union last year. There were strikes. They now turn around and claim their union with pride. Typical capitalistic bullshit
