Yep, a huge number of the people working at Walmart get some kind of government assistance. Most likely it is food stamps, housing help and daycare help.
I understand that most of these jobs are no meant to be careers, but sadly the only jobs we seem to be creating in this country are either these low paying service and retail jobs or high-tech jobs that require a degree of some sort. So if you were a person who worked for 15-20 years in an industry that has no moved offshore you can either take a shitty low paying job or go back to school (or both). Regardless of what you do it is not going to be a pretty situation.
