Contribute $900,000 To Each Walmart Store

“[A] single Wisconsin store [a Walmart] cost taxpayers an estimated $251,706 per year in Medicaid costs for employees, many of whom are working full time and still not hitting a livable wage. If you factor in all the federal relief programs available to the chain’s employees (reduced-price meals, subsidized housing, earned income tax credit, etc.), that number would theoretically soar to just over $900,000. Per store. Per year.”

Or the amount tax payers contribute to the staffing of each Walmart Store: $900,000.
