question:
What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Sam ? Walmart confirmed Thursday that it is closing dozens of Sam's Club warehouse stores â a move that a union-backed group estimated could cost thousands of jobs â on the same day the company announced that it was boosting its starting salary for U.S. workers and handing out bonuses.
The world's largest private employer said it was closing 63 of its 660  Sam 's Clubs over the next weeks  with some shut already. Ten are being converted into e-commerce distribution centers  according to a company official who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss details of the decision publicly.
He said it was too early to say how many people overall would lose their jobs since some will be placed at other Walmart locations or rehired at the e-commerce sites. Making Change at Walmart  a campaign backed by the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union  estimates that 150 to 160 people work at each Sam's Club store  meaning the closures could affect about 10 000 people.
Lauren Fitz  22  said she was at her other job as a church secretary when a colleague texted to say that  the Sam's Club  where they both worked in Loveland  Ohio  had closed. Fitz had been pleased earlier to read the news that Walmart was boosting starting salaries and offering bonuses.
"I thought  'this is really cool.' And then to find out that my store is closing " said Fitz  who said she had worked as a sales associate in the jewelry department for two months. At home  she got a call from her manager and had a letter in the mail saying the store had closed and she could seek employment at another Sam's Club or Walmart store.
On Twitter   Sam's Club  responded to people's queries by saying  "After a thorough review of our existing portfolio  we've decided to close a series of clubs and better align our locations with our strategy."
President Donald Trump cheered the announcement with a tweet  saying  "Great news  as a result of our TAX CUTS & JOBS ACT!" White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders later said she would not comment on the Sam's Club closings but that the wage increases were a sign that the tax measures "are having the impact that we had hoped."
Walmart announced years ago that it would actively manage its store portfolio as it strives to put a dent in Amazon's dominance online. With Thursday's closing  that strategy is now extending to Sam's Club.
The company said the wage increase benefits all hourly U.S. workers at its stores  including Sam's Club  as well as hourly employees at its websites  distribution centers and its Bentonville  Arkansas  headquarters. The one-time bonus between $200 and $1 000 will be given to Walmart employees who won't receive a pay raise.

Neutral


question:
What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Bernie Sanders ? As he has been for most of the past year , Bernie Sanders is on the road . 
That , in itself , says something about Sanders and the historical significance of his campaign . 
And although Sanders now seems unlikely to win the Democratic nomination for President , he has achieved much more than that . 
It is obvious that Sanders has , in the process , put a scare into Hillary Clinton 's campaign . 
Of the twenty-five states that have held Democratic primaries and caucuses , Sanders has won nine and Clinton has won sixteen -LRB- plus American Samoa and the Northern Mariana Islands -RRB- . 
But outside the South , where Clinton has won large majorities of black voters , many of Sanders 's losses have been narrow . 
Given the way the primary calendar was structured , with many Southern states voting in February and March , Sanders 's route to victory was always going to be precarious . 
The Sanders campaign achieved its initial goal , virtually tying Clinton in Iowa , trouncing her in New Hampshire , and losing by a whisker in Nevada . 
Had Sanders earned a few thousand more votes in Iowa and Nevada , he would have won all three contests . 
Still , Sanders carried Colorado , Minnesota , Oklahoma , and Vermont , and in Massachusetts he came within two percentage points of victory . 
Had Sanders followed up that shocking triumph by carrying Illinois , Missouri , and Ohio , this past Tuesday , his insurgent game plan would have been back on track . 
That it did n't quite work out does n't detract from the impact Sanders has had . 
On issues like inequality , trade , the environment , corporate offshoring , and bringing Wall Street miscreants to justice , the former Secretary of State has adopted Sanders 's language -- and , in some cases , his policies . 
Clinton had undoubtedly always intended to run as a center-left progressive in 2016 , just as she did in 2008 , but Sanders has forced her onto ground she had n't originally intended to occupy . 
Even Republicans have been taking up some of Sanders 's themes . 
Of course , the regressive tax policies that Cruz , Trump , and Kasich are advocating would exacerbate inequality , rather than reduce it , but the fact that Republicans have felt obliged to address these issues at all surely owes something to Sanders and the populist wave that he represents . 
Sanders 's other big theme is money in politics . 
But nobody has made the argument as passionately or as powerfully as Sanders . 
Since Sanders uttered these words , last May , his message has n't changed . 
In much the same way that Trump has labelled Sanders a Communist , the Republicans of Bryan 's day called him a fanatic who would wreck the American economy . 
It 's too early to say what Sanders 's legacy will be , or whether some of the ideas that he is pushing -- such as breaking up the big banks , introducing a single-payer health-care system , and returning tax rates on the rich closer to the levels that F.D.R. introduced -- will eventually be adopted . 
But it is also evident that , in the past ten months , Sanders has defied the pundits , alarmed the comfortable , and inspired the young .
answer:
Positive


question:
What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Albu Kamal ? Beirut (AFP) â Syrian troops and allied militiamen entered  the jihadist-held town of Albu Kamal  on Wednesday  state media said  edging closer to ousting the Islamic State group from its last urban stronghold in the country.
 Albu Kamal  lies on the Syrian side of the border with Iraq  in the oil-rich eastern province of Deir Ezzor.
Entry to  Albu Kamal  follows a series of stunningly quick defeats for IS in the province as well as the jihadistsâ loss of their de facto capital Raqa further north.
âArmy troops and allied forces broke through Daesh (IS) defences and entered Albu Kamal  waging fierce battles inside  the town  â state news agency SANA reported.
Syrian regime forces  backed by intensive Russian air strikes  have steadily advanced on  Albu Kamal  from the south and west for weeks.
âThe advance towards  Albu Kamal  came after army troops and their allies met up with Iraqi forces at the border between the two countries â SANA said.
A source from militias allied to Damascus told AFP that fighters from Lebanonâs pro-regime Hezbollah movement had advanced to the southern edges of  Albu Kamal  on Wednesday.
âPart of those units crossed into Iraq  with the help of Hashed al-Shaabi units  to circle around  Albu Kamal  and reach the northern side of the town â the source added.
But the jihadist group has seen that territory shrink to a small pocket along the Euphrates River  with  Albu Kamal  as  its  final hub.
In recent weeks  an estimated 120 000 people have been displaced from  Albu Kamal  alone  said Linda Tom from the United Nationsâ humanitarian affairs coordination office in Damascus.
answer:

Negative
