I want people paid enough money to live on without the maid, cellphones, home theater, luxury car. They are not asking for those things.
Our capitalistic system used to provide a job for a male wage earner who could support his entire family on his wages. Even some highly educated people who worked hard to get through school are losing their jobs and can't find equivalent jobs. Some of them probably have to take jobs at places like Wal Mart as a stop-gap measure. If they can't get out of that pit within a few months to a year, they may never climb back up to anything close to what they once had, what most of you seem to have but don't want other people to be earn enough money to buy those things.

You have a very naive view of history. Many of the poor of today are wealthier than the Middle class of 50 years ago.
Yeah, and the majority of the planet was under dictators, communists thugs or worse. Now most aren't.
Get used to the competition. Or are you too much of a weenie to compete? Oh wait, I bet you want all those Chinese, Indians, Eastern Europeans, etc. to stay in sqaulor under the jackboot of tyranny so you can make an extra buck an hour putting a grommit into a hole.
Don't blame WalMart or our capitalistic system for that situation - blame the nannies and envirowhackos who have overtaken our governemnt and are trying to micromanage private businesses into bancruptcy and offshoring because of over regulation and over taxation..........sort of what you are supporting.
If you do not like Wal Mart then do not shop there! It is that simple.
