“They are putting in these bagging carousels like at Walmart," Housey said. "We think they are taking away union jobs with all this technology.

No, they are responding to Union and government demands that pay $15/hr, get a pension, nearly 100% employer funded insurance, etc. So learn to use a wheel, it's not that hard.

Also by "taking away union jobs" you mean fewer unwilling people to fund your six-figure salaries and donations to Dem candidates.

I always had the impression that Big Y was union as well.

As everyone knows, ShopRite is not, and they’re taking a lot of the business.

Bagging carousels and the phrase “all this technology” being used by Union Management to get more money. LOL

Drive some buses down to the border and get some real cheap replacement workers.

Doesn’t matter what the wage rate is if they close their stores because they are non-competitive. Zero workers at $20 or $50 dollars an hour equals zero pay checks.

“Stop & Shop is the only large fully unionized food retailer left in New England.”

It’s pretty obvious that the owners should sell their company to the union. It’s certain that no one else would buy it.
