Wal Mart Brings New Meaning to Trimming the Fat

Via Nathan Newman's Labor Blog, this NY Times article reveals an internal Wal Mart memorandum that proposed holding down health care costs by making all of its hourly employees work part time and do physical work on the job.

As we reflect on the psychopathic, anti-social environment in the top tiers of Wal-Mart that produces this sort of a memorandum, let us remind ourselves who represent five of the top ten American billionaires. Ah, yes. Members of the Walton family.

Wal Mart is a traitor to America and a betrayer of our nation's best values.

UPDATE: LA Times article provides further information regarding Wal Mart memo and a backgrounder on its failure to provide medical coverage its workers can afford.
