I disagree. I blame this on the blatant consumerism of today's society. Seriously, you trample a guy to death and then go shopping with his blood on your shoes?

Who is to blame THEN?

The Walmart Corporation doesn't give a fuck about their employees, they never have. They're a company devoted to crushing competition and dominating the marketplace so they can control and raise prices.
