This makes it unlikely that she can afford the company’s family health plan at $218 a month or almost 25% of her gross income. These low wages combined with unaffordable benefits have pushed nearly 700,000 of Wal-Mart’s workers onto their spouses’ health care plan or taxpayer subsidized public assistance.

+++Listen Alley Oop, How would you like your medical needs placed in relation to what the rest of the world gets? What is it with you anyway...is someone going to charge your credit card personally for any improvements we make to the planet? Your cousin was back there when someone thought of cooking meat...he said the rest of the most of the world eats it raw so why complain?

+++I don't know what possible satisfaction it gives you to compare what people propose in the way of improvements...and lord knows there's room for some...maybe even in your hospital...with the worst possible examples you can find and then say..."things aren't that bad you know".

+++Are you psychologically pre-disposed to Fear? Do you not like change? How many complaints such as this have you heard...and what were you doing in Iraq...trying to make sure the status-quo was maintained and those parents stopped complaining? After all...there's starvation and death all over the world...what makes Bet Nahrain special?

Jeez...such a caveman.
