Join Rick Jacobs for a Special Screening of "Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price"

I just got something in my email box from the Democratic Party of Orange County. And I guess since this is such a special event, I should share it with you. There will be a special screening of the eye-opening documentary, "Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price"...
And Co-producer Rick Jacobs, who also happens to chair the Courage Campaign, will be here to talk to us after the film about how Wal-Mart is affecting Orange County's economy and communities, as well as the entire rest of the nation.

Follow me down below for more on this special event...

"Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price" takes the viewer on a deeply personal journey into the every day lives of families struggling to fight against a goliath. The film is based on individual human beings, all over the world, at all levels of society, telling their story in very personal terms.
