http://www.cnn.com/2008/US/03/25/walmart.insurance.battle/index.html i don't normally read these types of bulletins, let alone write one myself or pass it on to folks, but I think this is way overdo. If you have a few moments, please read the above cnn article. If you can't I will summarize: WALMART IS THE DEVIL.
A woman is part of the walmart healthcare plan, gets in a horrible accident and is left wheelchair bound, brain damaged and living in a nursing home. The family is awarded 1 million in damages. After the bloodsucking attorney's are paid, there is 417k left in a trust for her long term care. Walmart is SUING THEM for the 477k they paid out in medical expenses. Third quarter sales for WalMart were 90 BILLION DOLLARS. Just taker a sec to put that in perspective.
UNBELIEVABLE
the article really is much more informative, but please join me in sending this to EVERYONE you know and ask them to NEVER shop at WalMart again. I hear people say "but they have low prices" well, if you live here in indiana for example, you can shop JUST AS CHEAPLY at Meijer with few exceptions. I used to go to WalMart as seldom as possible. Now I will NEVER be going there.
Please get on the wagon with this. My personal goal is to cost them at least a few million dollars in sales every quarter. They may get their 477k back from the Shank family, but I want it to come at such a price they never do this kind of thing to another family ever again.
Thanks
