Walmart and other corporate giants such as McDonald's have been in the news for the low wages paid to their workers. Walmart workers and communities throughout America have their owns plans leading up to Black Friday. Thousands of protests are planned around the country to demand that Walmart does right by its workers and customers.

As the country’s largest retailer and employer, Walmart makes more than $17 billion in profits, with the wealth of the Walton family totaling over $144.7 billion – equal to that of 42% of Americans
