Wal-Mart saves money by paying its workers low wages so the Walton family can live better.

Last year the Walton family earned more than $30 billion last year... because the average Walmart employee only earned $19,200. WalMart saves money by paying its workers low wages so the Walton family can live better.

Wal-Mart makes most of their money in third-world countries, not from American employees. For example, a woman in Bangladesh will be paid 5 cents to make a coat worth 75 dollars. That is where they make their killing. The middle class people in America are programmed to be extreme consumers. Someone must buy the 75 dollar coats in America or Wal-Mart will go bankrupt. That is how the system works. This is partly why the third-world is so damn poor.

WHAT kid says Pizza again? LOL.The government says pizza is a vegetable.

This guy could go and get a job somewhere else!! No one forces him to work at Walmart! No one is forced to buy at Walmart.

It is better to get up and work daily than to sit back and show your children that you can just get a welfare check for doing nothing.

This is welfare reform. Walmart employees are lucky there is a place they can work.

In America, you are still free to find a need & create your own job.

I don't see that guy working at a Wal-Mart unless he is out of prison and on probation for his sex crimes and it's the only job he could get. I don't see them affording anything if he's the only 1 working for 8 dollars an hour in that household. Although i do agree Wal-Mart is cold and evil.
