Even though Wal-Mart is a colossal money maker, it barely pays it’s workers enough to live comforably, forcing employees to go on food stamps, Medicaid and other social welfare programs.
Wal-Mart pulls in $36 million dollars per hour – being the largest seller of food in the world. Yet, they don’t take care of their employees.
Through your tax dollars you are, in essence, handing a Wal-Mart cashier your money but not even getting so much as an empty bag in return.

Idiots and sycophants of idiots.
i get so tired of people saying they don’t pay the employees enough u I am an hourly associated and made just under 40k I am not a manager just a plain old worker. SO we don’t have to go on welfare. Don’t believe everything you read!
Don’t assume that because I disagree with the article that I like Obama’s policies.
Not good , not good at all
All the employes need to band together and walk out, strike
And consumers need to boycot them and OSAMA/OBAMA needs to stop allowing Walmart get away with it it’s obviously destroying economy all around with greed
Ps I go to my local owned Ideal Markets in Johnstown and get my meats from local butcher,,
You all need support locals
Cut out income tax
Americans don’t stick together anymore. We fight each other BC our government. Democrat blames republican. Republican blames democrat. I don’t like Obama by no means but he isn’t the only president that’s allowed this.
If you do homework its not just corporate walmart getting huge money from government. A lot do.

“I don’t like either both have done so much harm to this country.
My question to you is how did Bush do any better? Americans wasn’t making a living wage even under Bush.
It is the republicans thats screamed NO to raising minimum wage.
I’m not a republican or democrat. The problem is POLITICS!!! Both dem and rep. In defense of the employees at least they have a job and are trying.”

I aggree with you Julie, gov and corporation did good job separating us all from each other and from government and slowly I see people turning into sheep lol getting lead to their deaths , but what can one really do about it , not much until American wake up see ignorance
All I can do keep pressing “rants” of it and hopefully we will all re- unite
Because that’s what “U” in USA stand for “UNITED” somehow we are not no longer too much selfishness and ignorances built up through self prides of the Americans and greed
