Answer:

  • Walmart makes an estimated $51-$78 M in employee uniform purchases in the United States.
  • Americans pay $6.2B in taxes to subsidize the wages of Walmart employees in the form of government assistance.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, Walmart operates several shopping malls in the US and is not an employee uniform producer, if the statement states that "Walmart spends an estimated .." not "makes" it would have been correct.

Second, the American people pay taxes not primarily to make subsidies available for Walmart employees but as a compulsory levy to the government, so government decides what to do with the taxes.
