Wow. So many layoffs and the Walton kids are out flying million dollar plans. Wonder what Sam would say. Yes need to evolve with current business models but really have some respect for the people that BUILT the company.

What happened to Wal-Mart being a family oriented company?
It was a awesome job, but now it's just a job.
Knowing the Walton family and their history with air travel you would think they avoid it.
Then again don’t let Alice drive you anywhere either.
I don't think it's envy. Sam started the company, his kids experienced some of the hard/lean times associated with getting the business off and running. The grandkids have only experienced the windfall of benefits-financial, status, etc. they have nothing personally invested. Yes they own stock but it's not the same as earning it through your hours of service. Look at other ultra wealthy that have been given their lifestyle-Kardashians, Trump, etc. Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerburg, Steve Jobs, etc. their grandkids and great grandkids may very well have the same disconnect. Only time will tell
Th e founders of wally world had a thing. Their kidz... not so much.
Actually, they wouldn't be anything witout daddys m$o$n$e$y only average schmos. Or in prison.
Walmart, the american company is dead. Long live walmart.
Hope people who work for a living didn't vote for the party who gave the Waltons the tax cuts, then. 'Cause those aren't trickling down past the executive trough.
Is there a point to this post? If so, what is it? Envy?
