Walmart has slowed expansion in China, Brazil and Mexico. It is losing money in Brazil and making only a slim profit in China. In Mexico there are allegations that Walmart paid bribes to get permits to open new stores. Walmart may also have been involved in money laundering and tax evasion in Mexico.

i do not know a great deal about Walmart, but i used to work for Coles Logistics ...and their whole practice of work,,economy,management,,is all governed by insurance company...they no longer care about the staff that work there,long term or short term workers are treated with the same ,,do not know you attitude ,,,so when they try to sack you ....they do not know you,,,,in their defence it was not always like this. so i can only assume it is the same the world over....

The opposition and intolerance of bigotry is steadily rising as it should.
Bigotry is the state of mind of a bigot: someone who, as a result of their prejudices, treats other people with fear, distrust, hatred, contempt, or intolerance on the basis of a person's ethnicity, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, disability, socioeconomic status, or other characteristics.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. described bigotry in the following quotation: "The mind of a bigot is like the pupil of the eye; the more light you pour upon it, the more it will contract."[1]
