Current and former Walmart workers are using Occupy Wall Street camps to voice their frustration over recent benefit cuts and to show how Walmart heirs are the faces of the "1 percent."

Walmart recently announced that all new part-time employees who work less than 24 hours per week would be ineligible for health care coverage. Part-time employees who work enough hours to qualify will be required to wait at least a year before being able to join the plan. At the same time, employees currently covered were informed that their premiums will rise by as much as 60 percent.

Angered by this decision, Walmart workers and associates are holding teach-ins at encampments across the country. They hope the events will illustrate how the Walton family – inheritors of the Walmart fortune – has gotten extraordinarily wealthy while Walmart workers continue to largely make poverty-level wages.
