The McDonald's employee handbook actually has information in it about how to apply for food stamps and other government assistance.
I think Wal-Mart also knows that people come there for the cheap prices, not the customer service.
If they raised wages the might attract better overall employees, but those people may well be smart, more driven, and/or focused and would possibly want more opportunity and more from the company. Like I said before, they don't want to rock the boat. They have a good thing going and are raking in the profits.
