Hi Kat,
I wonder how this affect the individual stores - becasue the store in my neighborhood very visible disabled persons - the greeter - is in a wheelchair - has 1 limb - an arm. There is a man who is MR collecting carts, they also have seem to have lots of older folks - both caterories are heavy health insurance users.

Of course this means that disabled people will have lesser chances of
getting jobs at Wal-Mart because of the perception that they are ill. I
sincerely hope that Wal-Mart does not decide to follow this paradigm.
