Walmart is often the subject of criticism for allegedly paying low [[wage]]s with insufficient [[fringe benefit|health benefits]] and allegedly forcing "Mom and Pop" stores out of business.  It was also criticized for supporting [[homosexuality]]<ref>[http://www.gay.com/news/article.html?2006/08/21/4 "Wal-Mart launches gay-friendly initiative" August 21, 2006]</ref> and for not dispensing [[abortion]] inducing drugs at its pharmacies.  The company's defenders reply that Walmart tries to uphold a family value system and is a well-known provider of decent employment and affordable merchandise across America and the rest of the world.  Walmart's wages average significantly higher than minimum wage, which may explain why nearly 2 million people choose to work for Walmart.
