Wal-Mart labor critics welcomed the settlement but said it gives no indication the company is changing its ways. Wal-Mart Watch Executive Director David Nassar said many workers still suffer mistreatment.

"If these millions of workers had been allowed union representation, they never would have had to hire lawyers and wait years to get their paychecks," he said.
Nassar and others said Wal-Mart, which has GOP ties, is settling the cases before the new presidential administration takes over.

"Wal-Mart hatred is bullsh!t."
Personally...I do not understand why some conservatives love Wal-Mart. They seem to have monopoly on retail...its almost like the state having monopoly on all retail in the old Soviet Union.
Low prices can be achieved thru competition...a much better model than Wal-Mart “lets ship the manufacturing to Commie China”. There will come a day when Wal-Mart’s model of cheap will come crashing down....Commie China has to close factories....and will suffer a decline in population
GOP ties, that would likely be former Hillary Clinton as a board member. How quicly the so-called news reporters forget history.
Demonize your enemies applies here. Walmart is the perfect ‘card check’ candidate.
Snort. How much of that 640 mill will go to the lawyers....?
Wal-Mart has probably figured they can just pay these people off and that will be it. They are sorely mistaken. These rapacious trial lawyers and labor unions will stop at nothing. Wal-Mart better be at the forefront of stopping union card check legislation.
Walmarts a good company - no one is forced to work there. Why don’t the union cry babies try to bankrupt someone else for a while?
A lot of retail stores an restaurants in my area have employees doing work before clock in and after clock out. It’s a common practice in low income areas. My opinion is that stores caught doing this should be closed down and liquidated on the second offense.
Senator Hillary Clinton was on the Wal-Mart board for many years. Is she a Republican?
639,999,000 dollars will go to the lawyers who brought the lawsuit and the 63 Wally World employees will split the remaining thousand dollars.
