Worst Company in America Round 3

Wal-Mart has made it to the 3rd round, of the Consumerist's Worst Company in America competition, and we think they're going to go all the way. They may have a though match up against either American Airlines or Microsoft (I'm guessing Microsoft) next round, but the chances are looking pretty solid that they'll make it at least to the final 4. We'll let you know when the voting starts for this round which has Wal-Mart going up against Wellpoint, it should be a blowout.

Last year wal-mart made a profit of $11 billion dollars. A billion is a difficult number to comprehend,
but one advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into some perspective in one of it's releases.

A billion seconds ago it was 1959.
A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.
A billion hours ago our ancestors were living in the Stone Age.
A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.

Now based on this information how can a company that made that amount of money in one year only pays it's workers $10 an hour? wal-mart can easily afford to DOUBLE the pay of every associate and still make a nice profit.
