Wal-Mart — Sweatshop or Scapegoat?Tragically, the list of sweatshop operators, generally defined as employers who violate two or more local labor laws is growing in leaps and bounds.

In the interest of fairness, you may want to consider Wal-Mart’s International Operations fact sheet and their Ethical Standards Program.
