Not sure how illegal immigration affects Walmart, you’re wrong if you’re ascerting Walmart hires illegal immigrants. Walmart requires all associates to provide required I-9 documents proving they have a legal right to work in the US within 72 of being hired or else they are terminated. Walmart associates are also eligible for benefits after a period of time as well, and like most of us they have to pay into that program in order to get them. There are some terrifically affordable plans out there now for Walmart associates.
I know, I work for Walmart…and the Oceanside Supercenter is the future of Walmart in California. Whether you shop there or not, whether you like Walmart or not, you save money because of Walmart’s enormous impact on the retail competitive market.[/quote]
Trojan,
I am sure the corporate attorneys would be able to defend the corporation in the court of law. Tyson Foods attorneys did and Walmart for sure can purchase better protection than Tyson Foods.
Walmart is just one of the beneficiaries of the culture in which big businesses are being subsidized big. I am not interested in talking points explaining how ‘by the people, for the people’ equals unhealthy food and poisonous plastic for some, $8/h for others and campaign contributions and billions in profit for others.
