And while I'm a supporter of "business" in general, I hope that if employees that claim that they were forced to work "off the clock" by their supervisors to cut costs are able to prove it, I hope that Walmart is hammered by the courts. I would wish that the vast majority of any awards would go to the injured workers, but I realize that those suits are files as "class action," which is another definition of "the lawyers get rich, and a pittance goes to the injured."

Your lack of understanding of class actions is exceeded only by your disdain for the lawyers who bring them and benefit the people who have been defrauded by Walmart. Are you suggesting that the professional who create a benefit for these thousands of empoyees not be compensated for their services to these folks, the public generally and the honesty of the system?
Such ignorance emphasized and enhanced by one's hatred of the very professionals who keep the miscreant Walmart from defrauding these tens of thousands of employees demonstrates a disturbing, no, disgraceful, lack of civic integrity and candor.
Everyone of your ilk hates lawyers until the Walmarts of the world screw them and then, that fashionable hatred among the far right seems to moderate as they themselves seek professional help that only lawyers can provide.
While I would not wish anyone suffer from injustice, I would hope that ignorant folks, like you, learn that the benefits that come from the protections of the civil law are realized because there are lawyers who undertake to represent worthwhile causes like the Walmart employees--and even you, if you need them.
