It's nice that WalMart has done things like this and subsidizing medication costs but I think the thing we US citizens need to ask is, "What happens when we farm these incentive decisions out to corporations instead of deciding on them via government?"
>retailer said it would pay tuition for its workers ... to earn degrees in either supply chain management or business.
If we let companies decide what education will be subsidized and what will not, we are going to get a very homogenous (and I would imagine unhealthy) set of citizens. Even if the faith that capitalism will more efficiently distribute money than government would holds true, it's not necessarily a better outcome.
