Settling isn’t losing, settling is settling. Litigation is expensive, and companies often make business decisions to settle cases.

They have no compelling insurable interest in a janitor , greeter or the person who waters the plants in the garden department ... that’s what makes this a dodge/scam and NOT LEGITIMATE INSURANCE ,, simply by being an employee isn’t a strong enough reason to allow this abuse of the tax laws... these arguments that WMT has an interest because of the replacement cost if the employee dies is BS ,, I’m sure 100 employees quit or are fired for every one that dies ,, why wouldn’t they insure against that eventuality? (yes I know you can’t actually do that as it is an eventuality that is not “chance” but I use it to illustrate the falsehood of the argument for allowing this abuse of the taxpayers) I don’t think WMT is evil but I do want them to NOT GAME THE SYSTEM AND PLAY BY THE RULES , THIS MEANS PAYING TAX ON THEIR PROFITS NOT PROFITS minus CASH WASHED THROUGH AN INSURANCE COMPANY AND CONVERTED INTO NON-TAXABLE DEATH BENEFITS THAT HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE EMPLOYEES WORTH TO THE CORP.
