I know it's easy to hate corporations because they're big, rich and faceless, but I don't think it's entirely fair. Walmart thrives because they're good at what they do. Of course they are self-interested, I would not expect a company to be anything else. But people shop there because they want to; they can get good prices there. And believe me: there are little "mom and pop" stores that treat their employees at least as bad as you say the local Walmart does.
Please forgive me for being blunt here Psycom: if your mom doesn't have a high school education, would she be able to get a job anywhere else? Working at Walmart isn't that bad if the alternative is unemployment.
