Trump Monster and Media Silent Wal-Mart for Estate Tax Costing over a Trillion



Walmart and the Walton Family's History of Funding Candidates Who Vote Against the Best Interests of Women

The Walmart PAC and the Waltons spend millions of dollars each year on politics. And both give disproportionately to candidates who vote to weaken women's rights. From 2005 to 2012, among candidates with scores on the American Association of University Women’s 2012 Congressional scorecard, the majority of the Walmart PAC and Waltons’ contributions went to those with scores of 25 and below out of 100.

The Media has been SILENT on the Trumps Tax Breaks, media giants will get Billions themselves. Social Security and Medicare will be cut down to nothing rather than fixing, Politicians don't get SS so they could care less! Infrastructure – Media Silents, not one word, Russia, I think Trump has made a maddening resolution for after his presidency and businesses completely away from what a so called president should be doing. Trump should be removed from office ASAP! The Media needs to show the incredible problems with the top few percent receiving tax breaks costing a trillion and a half leaving zero money for anything else.

Sourcewatch is a very informative site. Those are some of the reasons I don't trade with Walmart, but it's primarily because of their destruction of our communities.
