I couldn't care less about Walmart per se, but I care a lot that you do not spread disinformation to rile up the masses with misleading garbage. Shame on you to provoke envy of Walton family. Walmart's net profit this year is 1%. It has rarely been more than 3%.
Here's the truth that @BernieSanders does not understand:
Walmart's starting wage for new workers is $10 per hour.
Walmart's profit per worker hour is $2.
At $15/hour minimum wage, Walmart will go bankrupt almost overnight.
Socialists don't understand capitalism.

Meanwhile, in Venezuela (which @BernieSanders admired as recently as in 2011):
Venezuela's inflation data is released for the first time in 3 years. Official data released Monday showed consumer prices in Venezuela rocketed higher by more than 130,000% last year.

In 2011, Bernie Sanders proudly subscribed to and highlighted this:
"These days, the American dream is more apt to be realized in South America, in places such as Venezuela, where incomes are actually more equal today than they are in the land of Horatio Alger."
