They are famous? You are making stuff up again. Companies that offer health insurance to employees working less than 30 hours are in the minority, and Walmart has decided to stop offering it to employees whom work less than 24 hours.

What are your statistics as to the number fired before one year?

The article also states that not all members choose to ENROLL into the plan. That is their choice. They are free to do so. I do not have 100% coverage here because some employees choose to be covered under their spouses program.

Wal-Mart Stores Inc will no longer offer health insurance to new part-time U.S. employees who work fewer than 24 hours a week and will charge workers who use tobacco more for coverage as healthcare costs rise, the company said on Friday.

Not all of the company's 1.4 million U.S. employees sign up for its healthcare plans. Wal-Mart said it currently insures more than 1 million people, including workers' family members.
