View the original

You ever wonder what sort of tax break(s) Wal-Mart receives as municipalities compete to have these town-killer big-box stores locate in their town? Well, check out Wal-Mart Subsidy Watch.

Pick a location from the pop-down menu at the right, or simply click on a state in the map for a report. For example, in Maine:

There are no centralized databases of economic development subsidies, but Good Jobs First found 3 deals worth a total of about $22.2 million in Maine. They include the following:

Good Jobs First has compiled data on Wal-Mart subsidies in the following cities
Augusta, ME : $5.7 million
Lewiston, ME : $16 million
Waterville, ME : $500,000

Hidden taxpayer costs
Many Wal-Mart workers are ineligible for health coverage from their employer or choose not to purchase what is available, because it is too expensive or too limited in scope.
