As long as they're aligned with the Ds and/or liberalism I agree wholeheartedly
As for the Waltons, they've provided goods/services in return for payment and typically at a better/much better value than virtually anyone else. That they've done it on a larger scale & been more successful at it should not be punished. Less whining, less jealousy, more aspiration to be as successful as they've been is what this country needs, what it should stand for, damned near the ideal afaic. That they, and other successes, aren't role models instead of being villified out of jealousy is a disgraceful example of why we're swirling the bowl.
I'd take them -- or countless other people smart enough & capable enough to create success -- over the sum total of all their detractors and the nation would be exponentially better off. The latter represent a great deal of what's wrong with American today afaic.
They're an enormous pain in the ass to do business with (dealt with them from a business standpoint for a client, slotting fees, marketing, etc) but then again who isn't?
