WalFart: drives local business out of business. Often uses local taxes to build its stores thru subsidies, infrastructure building (roads, sewers,etc)and tax abatements. The 200-300 local minimum wage employees usually replace double their numbers in the stores that are driven out of business. If you read the papers, or watch the news, you know how they abuse employees, underpay them, and sometimes (unbelievably)actually lock the doors on their night maintenance workers. In addition, WalMart has driven manufacturing out of the US, by its policy of driving costs lower each year until desperate to remain alive companies began the move overseas, where they employed dollar a day workers without medical benefits-- I could go on, but there have been books written on this. One more thing. Sam Walton's widow received a dividend a few years ago, large enough, that if she had foregone the dividend each one of her minimum wage employees could have received a bonus exceeding $1000. (1,000,000 employees.)

Monsanto. Because they are agents of death and are trying to patent life. They deal in GMOs all around the world and are causing suicides and crop failures and starvation.
