Sun in Spin Cycle

The Sun has already began their all-out spin of the Wal-Mart bill in this morning's edition:
The verbiage was endless, and the warnings verged on the cataclysmic, but the bottom line is that the two most hotly contested measures in Annapolis - the so-called Wal-Mart bill and another to raise the minimum wage - affect only a relative handful of Maryland residents.
Tell that to the consumers who now will have to pay higher prices at Wal-Mart; that certainly does not constitute only a "relative handful." Tell that to the small business owners who just saw their costs go up due to the impending minimum wage hike. And what about the jobs that may never materialize due to the strengthening of Maryland's already bad reputation as a business climate?
