    Really so now you think because of their name that I expect them to pay more. The name has nothing to do with it. Listen litee this is just my opinion and you have your own. It does not make my opinion right it's just how I feel.

    Do think if the minimum wage was 5.00 dollars an hour walmart would still be paying their employee's what they are now or would they be paying 5.00 dollars and hour.

    I have a simple fix. If a corporation purchased over 60% of their merchandise outside of the US borders, they must pay their employees enought per hour that they wouldn't have to depend on the goverment for any assistance. The price for doing business outside the US borders. Support America buy America.

    No litee, the greedy union bosses are the ones pushing their workers out of a job and not all unions are like that. Like I said our last contract between the union and company I work for had a negotiated deal before are current contract was up. The company gave us more then what we were asking for. there was no greed on either part. Like I said the union and company have worked together for the 22 years I have worked for them. The last time the union had a strike was back in the 60's. so, you can't say all unions are bad that's just not true. I worked for a non union company before the one I work for now and guess what they treated me very good and gave me a decent and fair wage yes it was not as good as the union guys were making but, it was a good wage so, companies can treat their workers good and pay them a fair wage and some are just plain greedy and will not pay their workers a decent wage because they only think of themselves. And guess what in my opinion and my opinion only walmart owners are the greedy ones.

    There is nothing wrong with unions. I have always worked for corporations that had a union work force. The majority of unions only do good things for the employees and work with the corporations. If we didn't have some unions the working class would have terrible working conditions. Good research the Chinese working conditions in their factories. It is ashame when they have to puy safety nets around the building because worker are trying to commit suicide because they can't handle the working conditions anymore.

    Unions are not a bad thing only the greedy coropration want you to believe that. Have unions made some mistake? Yes they have but in all they have did the common man good.

    The actual Walmart pay structure document can be seen here:

    http://big.assets.huffingtonpost.com/Walmart_0.pdf

    Take into consideration that the combined wealth of 6 Waltons exceeds the entire shared wealth of 30% of the nation, that pay scale looks pretty crappy. But, in the Walton's defense, they are just taking advantage of the employment laws of our nation and paying as little as they can get away with. Which makes billionaires billionaires and the unskilled workers at Walmart peasants.

    And the nation becomes the caretakers of the employees children, and many of the employees, because so many Walmart workers are on food stamps and get state health care because they don't earn enough at their jobs to afford anything else. So we all pay the bills at Walmart, whether we want to or not.
    So you want shelf stockers and cash register workers to be unionized at WalMart and everywhere else? You and Kid have this warped idea about big business making profits and being evil, yet ignore the direct evil of the people pushing this Bullcrap!!!

    Nope you are wrong again but, what's new. I could care less how much companies makes as long as they treat their employee's fair and pay them a fair wage it's when they get greedy and don't treat their employee's good. Like I said I'm not for employee's trying to unionize against walmart there should be no need for it. The owners just need to treat their employee's better in my opinion.

    Again you are wrong. It's going to be because of what the Federal Reserve as done with QE1,QE2 and QE3. Union corruption when they only make up what 20% of the work force. Oh just maybe some of the greed that's going will have something to do with it just wait and see.
