Wal-Mart fully admits that the majority of its workers are forced to rely on public assistance or a spouses health benefits to attain medical care. It is estimated that the company shifts approximately a billion dollars a year in health costs to taxpayers and responsible employers. Wal-Mart workers have no defined benefit pension plan and must invest 85 percent of their 401(k) contributions in Wal-Mart stock.

Stock Market News Simply put, Wal-Mart is a corporate outlaw. It violates human rights and is viciously anti-union. The NLRB has issued over 40 complaints against the company in more than 25 states for illegally denying workers their right to support and form a union. Wal-Mart faces an ever-increasing number of lawsuits for discrimination based on gender, sexual orientation, and race. Lawsuits regarding illegal pay practices -- changing time records and forcing employees to work off the clock -- are mounting. Wal-Mart buys products from countries where human rights abuses are rampant and sweatshops and child and forced labor are common.
