ALICE WALTON IS WORTH 21 BILLION DOLLARS

while most of her employees at Walmart are on "The EBT", or what they called food stamps back in the day.
Greed is killing our once great nation and nothing is being done about it.

and puts us all at risk for driving drunk.

The state has an insurance program to pick up the tab for Walmart, Tyson and the other pukes who own the state. It costs $25 a month for limited insurance.

She's one of 1% who can't handle being wealthy. I get an impression that in her mind set she's poor. My mother and stepfather moved to Arkansas many years ago and told me that Sam was a very down to earth man, would not have wanted to see what Wal-Mart today has done. Who knows?

It's a national disgrace that we have people working (for Wal-Mart) that have to be on food stamps and Medicaid to survive. That's the Wal-mart model of employment, though. They do everything they can to work people for the smallest wage possible and no benefits.
