Employees of Walmart

Walmart pays their emplyees as little as they can and in most cases they are being paid minnimum wage. In 2005 the average walmart employee was being paid $13,861 and the poverty level was at about $17,000. that is ridiculous that such a big business like walmart cant afford to pay its employees enough money to even surpass the poverty level. The worse thing is that when the walmart employees get paid most of their money goes right back into walmart because that's where most of their employees do their shopping. The part where this starts to really become a problem is when they encourage their employees to go on Welfare.Walmart Employes make so little that they have to go on welfare and get financial aid from the government.
