The size of this verdict speaks loudly to the disdain Americans have for multi-billion-dollar companies needlessly exploiting their workers.

Ambassador Young is now in a unique position to reach out to Wal-Mart and CEO Lee Scott and urge them to change.

They basically repackaged their old bad plan and had their PR firm put a nice new name on it,

Wal-Mart fails to address the key reasons more than half of its employees aren't covered under their health care plan _ ridiculously high deductible costs and overly strict eligibility requirements,

The vote expands health care for workers, stops large, profitable companies from shifting their health care costs onto taxpayers, and makes sure all large, profitable employers pay their fair share for health care.

Wal-Mart has already lost the battle in the court of public opinion; now Wal-Mart has lost the battle in a court of law as well.
