I understand that Wal-Mart will NEVER settle a meritless

Hey, when you've got more money than god. what's a few legal fees. I
doubt they give a flying crap about other nuisance suits. It's just a
simple exercise in power. They have more money than they can possible
use, so what else can they do for chuckles. Howzabout flex some muscle
and see who we can make flinch. Oooh... lookee!! The US government!
Jinkies.

What legal fees? They have salaried lawyers. Employees of the company, in
other words.


Right. Employees are free. No salaries, no employment taxes, free.
I wonder why 17% of the workers are un(der)employed?
