  1. ☛ Walmart: America's real 'Welfare Queen'

    notemily:

    miss-lurker:

    At over $446 billion per year, Walmart is the third highest revenue grossing corporation in the world. Walmart earns over $15 billion per year in pure profit and pays its executives handsomely.

    Wal-Mart’s poverty wages force employees to rely on $2.66 billion in government help every year, or about $420,000 per store. In state after state, Wal-Mart employees are the top recipients of Medicaid. As many as 80 percent of workers in Wal-Mart stores use food stamps.

    …In effect, Wal-Mart is shifting part of its labor costs onto the public.
