An obscene amount of Walmarts employees are on government assistance (food stamps & health insurance)Who do you think picks up the tab for wally world?
Glad someone finally pointed that out!
Wal-Mart is #1 again! But this accolade isn’t something to celebrate.
The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports this week that Wal-Mart tops the list of companies with employees on Badger Care, the Wisconsin’s tax-supported health care program for the working poor.
[blockquote]The biggest employer of BadgerCare recipients was Wal-Mart, which had 809 of its employees and 443 of employee dependents enrolled in the state program in April. Providing health care for those 1,252 people costs Wisconsin about $2.7 million a year; Wal-Mart turned a profit of $10.3 billion in 2004.[/blockquote]
And last week,
the Associated Press reported details in New Hampshire of the number of employees who benefit from two state run health insurance programs, Medicaid and Healthy Kids Silver. For both programs, Wal-Mart was the employer with the most workers receiving benefits, a total of 487 employees.
Previously, Wal-Mart has topped the list in several other state studies of employees and their dependents on public assistance including Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Tennessee, Washington and West Virginia.
Anyone else want to ask the question "why get mad at Walmart"?
Go educate yourself a bit!

If you don't think they sell inferior products , or rejects , go pick yourself up a cheap Stealthcam at wally world and then compare it to the Stealthcamsthey sell in a proshop or major sporting goods chain. It's not just the packaging that's different (cheaper) it's the entire product.
You can lay down 3 "Muzzy" broadheads from wally world (un-packaged) and 3 Muzzy broadheads from a proshop and I'll tell you which ones came from wally world.
