RE: [Winona] Who can get it done!

I think the point that Paul was trying to make was that Wal-mart has been very successful in the current social, political and economic climate and that the management team has done a good job of navigating the company to its success.  He seems to be observing the differences in the ways that government goes about trying to implement change and the ways that an entrepreneur might tackle solving the problem of our health care crisis.
 
Paul has graciously shared with us the salary and benefits offered to his employees.  I appreciate his ethic of walking the talk and I think this is one of the areas where the differences in points of view start to surface.  Dwayne's (and others) point of view includes the lack of ethics shown by mega corporations.  It seems to be this history of unethical behavior which is pivotal in considering possible solutions and their pathways.
 
I wonder if we might agree that there is a certain lack of regard for the "average Joe" (or any individual) both within extremely large corporate systems and within government systems?  It seems to be a sort of institutional discrimination--not intended by any one individual toward another, but when the big picture is examined overall, the pattern most definitely exists.
 
What do you think?

Regarding efficiency to a particular conclusion:  Wal-Mart,


You're kidding right?
Wal-Mart doesn't even provide comprehensive health care coverage to their own employees and we expect them to provide the model for healthcare for all?
