WIN: New app for finding union grocers near you



By Doug Cunningham


Want to be sure to shop at a union grocery but not sure where they are?

There’s an app for that.

The United Food and Commercial Workers union has created a smartphone app that allows U.S. and Canadian shoppers to find their nearest union grocery store the app by the 1.3 million member UFCW also provides breaking news updates and information on how to take action for working families, according to the UFCW.

Rightardia would suggest that the UFCW also put up a web site that identifies union grocers.

Recently Rightardia discovered that Public Supermarkets support the notorious anti-American organization, The American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC).

To see some of the shady stuff that ALEC is involved with. see http://www.justice.org/cps/rde/xchg/justice/hs.xsl/15044.htm

ALEC had drafted reactionary legislation that many states have adapted and claims it is not a lobbying organization.

Common Cause publishes list of ALEC members



ALEC has come under increased public scrutiny lately for its extremist agenda to limit voting rights, privatize schools and prisons, weaken environmental protections, and promote ‘Stand Your Ground’ gun laws based on the controversial Florida law in the Trayvon Martin shooting.


There are many telecommunications companies like AT&T, AOL, sprint and Verizon. Both Amazon and Ebay are in ALEC. Wal-Mart is on the list as well as many petro-chemical companies, pharmaceuticals and for profit college chains. 


So is Publix Super Markets. Shame on Publix!  


Rightardia sent this message to Publix Supermarkets.



I saw Public Supermarkets listed as a member of ALEC and was greatly disappointed. As a Publix shopper of many years, I have held your company in high regard until now. 


I hope you reconsider being a member of an organization that is quite frankly un-American.
