clipper's remarks: will walmart ever stop leeching american workers?

wal-mart may face up to $2 llion in fines after a minnesota state judge found a total of 2 million contractual violations by the retail giant.
the judge also ruled on monday that wal-mart owed $6.5 million to 56,000 current and former employees because of contractual violations, including a failure to give workers promised rest breaks at least 1.5 million times. the judge also found that wal-mart managers in minnesota had systematically broken the law by having employees take in-house training while off the clock.
?it?s only through a decision like this that wal-mart can be held to its contractual agreets and to complying with minnesota law.?
