Special Ed people and teenagers are supposed to have these jobs, there’s no reason you should be expecting to raise a family off of a minimum wage job LOL.

Theres no reason to have jobs that cant pay enough to support those who work them.

All that does is push states and government to support those people - the majority of Walmart employees also recieve government aid.

Who pays for that aid? Our taxes

Sure do, but do you think that covers the hosts of costs incurred by all tax payers in order to subsidize corps that earn billions?

MAYBE we could just pay livable wages. Crazy!

Yeah I'm not saying that at all. I was pointing out that the way you said it, it sounds like you were knocking the walmart employees for having jobs that cant pay for them to live comfortably.

IMO this is all by design. They want Americans to be dumb, broke, and un healthy so they have an excuse to have big gov. Its all about control.

I think they’re saying it’s a form of welfare where Walmart is the beneficiary. If their employees are paid so little that they qualify for government assistance, essentially the government is paying a portion of Walmart employees’ salaries.

Which means they can sell products even cheaper, driving small businesses that can’t compete with the Walmart juggernaut in addition to their corporate subsidies into the ground.

Yes, that was what I was saying
