It may seem like that, but if you do a quick Google search, you will actually see that Doug McMillan (Walmart CEO) actually started working at Walmart as a teenager and worked his way up through the organization.

The Walton family makes $25,000 a minute.

They choose not to out of greed.
And together, that's the kind of greed we're going to end.
