Walmart's health care is terrible. It is very difficult to afford and has very high co-pays, like $75 to get a prescription filled. Most Walmart employees cannot afford any health care, so Walmart encourages them to go on medicaid, which is welfare and soaks the taxpayers. Walmart is the biggest exploiter of welfare in the country.

Walmart health care "covers" less than half its employees. US tax payers pick up a sizeable chunk of the rest. So, Bill, assuming you are a tax-paying U.S. citizen, YOU are covering Walmart's obligations to its employees. Way to go pal. That's the American way.

Walmart encourages employees to go on Medicaid, which is welfare for the poor, which WE pay for. They also encourage going on food stamps and other public teat programs which are very demeaning.
