Well; now I have seen everything. The CEO of Wal-Mart has a meeting with prominent Governors and tells them how it is going to be; claiming there is'Too Much Politics", regarding the health care issue. And when the Governors ask why Wal-Mart is shifting a large part of their workers to part time status in order to shift more of their health care needs onto the taxpayers he tells them; "We Must Compete." So all you taxpayers rejoice because we get to fund Wal-Marts shorfall in benefits in order to keep those 6$ an hour jobs in our communities.
6$ an hour means they don't even pay taxes after computing their yearly wage. And we pay for their health care. It takes two years for a part-timer to begin coverage at the Wal-Mart and that doesn't even cover their children.
Keep shopping there all the delicate geniuses; then for the twelve cents you save on towels you can pay 2800$ for one of their employees to visit the local emergency room because they can't afford a doctor visit for their kids and Wal-Mart doen't offer health benefits along with their slave wages.
