Wally World keeps it's wages dirt cheap--while the Waltons are sitting on untold billions and billions of dollars--and instructs its workers how to go on the dole! McDonalds does the same thing.

I get the credit for this one. He'll be back, of course, that's what he's paid for.

The left sure gets creative in finding ways to attack those who don’t line up with them.

Attack food stamps, not employers.

I love the smell of toasted marshmallows in the morning.

So does the US military!
So does ACORN, or what ever they’ve changed their name to now.

So if they did not work there how much assistance would they be on? And of course, since you included them, most Mcd’s are franchises who can decide to pay what they want, but you know that right? And why not continue your rant against the majority of fast food businesses and target, kmart, sears, et al? You want socialism, a sharing of wealth to the proletariat? Start out by listing all the successful countries where that works.

Here is the real question. Would they work at Walmart for the wages they are offered if the Tax payer subsidies didn’t exist?

Putting up a sign that points to the “free food” doesn’t make Walmart a horrible company in my eyes.

I’m late to this thread, but any crapola that starts with “According to The Huffington Post...” sets my zot radar in motion.

Then I see your comment and your signon date and yep. I’m in after the zot.

It’s not a corporation’s responsibility to keep people off the government dole. The government is the one who’s supposed to cut people off from becoming lifers on the system.

If the welfare bennies were cut, maybe taxes could go down, and wages would be naturally driven up to compensate as businesses used more of their untaxed cash to compete for labor.

Being cut off would also force people to improve their skills to seek out higher-paying jobs or do their job better to demonstrate to their employer why they’re worth a higher salary or promotion.

Most likely, these people would refuse “too high” a salary from Walmart because it would disqualify them from the bennies they’re dependent on. The ridiculous government-run system of welfare and means-tested benefits are the source of the problem.
