Ryan , The Walton's will make thousands from the insurance policy they put on you as a walmart associate if you happen to die in a motor vehicle accident or commit suicide from being a depressed overworked underpaid peasant (walmart associate).

I don't imagine they would, as I parted ways with the Hive Collective several years ago.

[Great Rumbler]

I really don't see what the problem is.

They get a million off you dieing, Your family who is broke and struggling gets sqawt.

Don't you think its kind of worrisome that your employer turns a profit by having his employee's die.

[Great Rumbler]

Unless someone can find evidence that companies are involved with having their employees killed to collect the insurance, then, no, I don't have a problem as long as they're not taking money out of the employee's check to pay for it.

Winn Dixie Stores bought life insurance policies on approximately 36,000 of its employees, without their knowledge or consent, and named itself as the policies’ beneficiary. The insurance brokerage firm that placed the policies prepared two memos describing the deceased employees as “Dead Peasants.” These memos were part of the court’s record in a lawsuit in which the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit held that Winn-Dixie’s policies were a sham transaction for federal income tax purposes. The memos were later used by reporters such as Ellen Schultz and Theo Francis of the Wall Street Journal and L.M. Sixel of the Houston Chronicle and incorporated into articles about this type of insurance.

Well, I'm certainly glad I don't work there anymore.
