Even though Wal-Mart is a colossal money maker, it barely pays it’s workers enough to live comforably, forcing employees to go on food stamps, Medicaid and other social welfare programs.
Wal-Mart pulls in $36 million dollars per hour – being the largest seller of food in the world. Yet, they don’t take care of their employees.
Through your tax dollars you are, in essence, handing a Wal-Mart cashier your money but not even getting so much as an empty bag in return.

Ok you who keep calling for a living wage.. How much exactly is a living wage? How is it supposed to be calculated? Remember thatvhigher up people in the company, managers and such will be required to make that of a percentage more in wages too and that all the taxes for every employee will go up too during this raise.
Actually there are tons of jobs for skilled workers but not enough skilled workers.
F**e news, misleading false headline.
Or, or hear me out: There are more than enough grants, scholarships and federal aid for people to seek trade jobs that will make them more money. The hard part is deciding whether or not you want to wait on the government to increase your wages.
According to internet, WalMart pays full-time employees $13.38 and part-time employees $10.58 (maybe more now). Anyway, a full-time employee would not qualify for welfare unless they had (let’s say 8 kids), and a part-time employee is just that (working part-time) so maybe they need to get 2 part-time jobs. But, many find it easier to work part time and get welfare. Now there is a problem.
Why
Hell no way
Walmart makes plenty of money to pay a living wage and benefits . And should do so.
Not skilled for Walmart.
What’s wrong with them getting incentives for hiring those on public assistance? y’all want people to get off assistance yet cry when companies get incentives to go out of their way to hire someone on public assistance.
