Bill Gates has given 58%.

The Walton family made $3.2Million in political contributions in 2004. A Wal-Mart worker may donate money from their pay check to the Critical Need Fund, a program to aid other employees in times of crisis, for example fires, floods or tornados.

In 2004, Wal-Mart employees gave OVER $5million to help fellow workers.

The Walton family gave $6,000.

Despicable.
