We don't have a full Wal Mart here, only a "neighborhood grocery store", but the city estimates it will pay $3mil in city taxes alone in it's first year. I would guess that was more than the old store it replaced made in a year.
What we need to do is close loopholes. How about a new law saying if you have ten or more employees - even part time - you must pay healtcare for them. Hawaii has a similar law. Then close the other loopholes that Wal Mart is using.
Again, I don't mean to be defending Wal Mart. Their business practices are horrible. I avoid Wal Mart at all costs. But it's companies like Wal Mart that strive to make people better.

Facts arent biased You fund Walmart thru your tax dollars. They move in, they a get big tax break guess who pays for that? you. Those people who work for them make no money, have no insurance get sick and go to the hospital who pays for it? You They dont make enough for housing who pays for it again? you. Meanwhile Walmart makes 16 billion and you defend them for fucking you. lol They pay their people shit ,the plant is closed you got a family to feed or you're a single mom or not college smart. So you work at walmart, they dont give you full time. Once someone is in that hole they rarely get out because the hole just keeps getting bigger and bigger.
