		Walton died Monday after the experimental, kit-built plane he was piloting crashed in a sage brush flat near the Jackson Hole airport in Grand Teton National Park.
		Walton's wife, Christy, in a poem, memorialized his adventurous streak and the way in which he'd regale his family with his tales: "saved to tell us the story, saved to try another day, saved to carry the edge, saved to carve the future, saved from death again and you finally lost the game."
		Walton was a Green Beret medic who served in Vietnam and a Silver Star winner for saving the lives of team members under fire.

	On the Wal-Mart Money Trail by Lisa Featherstone
		Each Walton heir has philanthropic projects of his or her own--Alice, for example, is building a world-class art museum in northwest Arkansas--but the family fortune should be considered as one because most of the money is managed together.
		The Waltons' motives for supporting the privatization of education seem--at this writing, anyway--to be ideological, even idealistic, rather than an elaborate backdrop to a new money-making scheme.
		Helen Walton, now 85 and in poor health, is expected to donate almost all of her personal fortune--worth $18 billion--to the WFF upon her death, which, as the NCRP points out, will make that entity the richest foundation in the world.

		They are the Walton family, including Helen, the 86-year-old widow of the late Wal-Mart founder Sam Walton, and their four adult children, Alice, Sam, Jim, and the late John.
		The Walton family is a formidable concentration of private power and wealth, which they exercise through political contributions, charitable donations, and in the marketplace through their ownership stake in Wal-Mart and other ventures.
		With their controlling interest, the Walton family could be a moral force for good, urging the company to end such practices and raise wage and benefit standards for their own employees.

	Wake-Up Wal-Mart Blog: Billionaire List Names Seven Waltons
		From my point of view though, the reason why the words "healthcare and waltons are millionaires" are in the same sentence is because walmart skimps on healthcare more and more and more, therefore the waltons get more money.
		The only way the Waltons earn money is A: to sell their stock (which they have not done) or B: to earn dividends.
		So, if you are going to condemn the Waltons, then you must also condemn the millions of Americans who hold stock, from 1 share to millions of shares, in companies with far worse records than Wal-Mart.
