Dont forget that their jobs are also taxpayer subsidized through low pay that makes employees eligible for poverty benefits (Yes, I think that there is something wrong when a person is employed and works as much as thier employer will allow them, and they are still eligible for poverty benefits). Even if you do not shop at Wal-Mart, you still give money to Wal-Mart by providing benefits that a responsible employer should be providing.
