Wal Mart: Thank you. Your Comments Have Been Forwarded to the Appropriate Department
After seeing Michael Moore's movie, I took it upon myself to inform Wal Mart personally regarding their involvement in the Dead Peasant Policies. My original email appears below. If I hear more I will post it.
Wasn't sure what to expect, but here is their response:
Thank you for your message.
Dear Brian,
Thank you for taking the time to contact us with your feedback. Each comment, concern and suggestion is very important to us because it gives us the opportunity to evaluate the various aspects of our business. Be assured that your message will be forwarded to the appropriate team where it will be reviewed and carefully considered.
Thank you again for your correspondence.
Sincerely,
Walmart Customer Care
I saw Michael Moore's movie, 'Capitalism: A Love
Story'. I learned about a young cake baker that you took out a Life
Insurance policy on, a Dead Peasant's Policy. She died and apparently
Wal Mart not only collected the insurance policy, but shared nothing
with the survivor. Moore stated you no longer engage in this practice,
for which I commend you.
Nevertheless, simply withdrawing the practice is hardly enough. You owe
to the survivors a sizable financial contribution for this horrible
practice. Let me know when you do and then I will not only quit feeling
nauseous when I am near your stores or see your ads, I will actually
begin shopping there again.
