Walmart Lobbied to Amend Anti-Bribery Law

Recently, Wallmart came under fire for corruption when it was revealed that a Wallmart subsidiary in Mexico shelled out $24 million in bribes to win construction permits in the country.

Here's the kicker ...

How [expletive] convenient? Wallmart epitomizes corporate greed and evil.
