No facts, but...

Did have to deal with the same thing in St. Louis a few months ago (one of the places these strikes started), fortunately I think they got things worked out the other month. Did cross a picket "line", but they weren't really doing much, just standing in groups near the entrances to the parking lots holding signs. I'm sure Walmart and a number of the other stores saw a definite increase in business from it.

I think in St. Louis, though, they were trying to hire scabs for like $11/hr, so I'm pretty sure they don't make $25/hr average in the Midwest, anyway.
