Internal Walmart Document Reveals Policy Of Paying Poverty Wages

[Seawytch]

Increasing the wages or adding more workers=higher prices! Do you want to pay more?

Or it could mean that these people own just a little less of the nations wealth. Why is that never an option?

"Today the Walton family of Walmart own more wealth than the bottom 40 percent of America."

You want cheap crap, that means cheap labor. Cheap labor means that either the jobs leave America or people here aren't paid a living wage. This means that the people can only afford to buy the cheap crap produced with the cheap labor.

A rising tide lifts all ships. They are draining the ocean.

Those rushing to shop would be for the food section with their food stamps I suppose. That, or maybe it's welfare check day.

Nobody enjoys a good bargain at their local discount store like an Obama voter!

Two years ago, when she started working at the deli counter of a Walmart in Illinois, Lisa hoped that her job would amount to the beginning of a career, one that would pay enough to cover her bills and enable her to stay current on her student loan debt.

But despite one raise since, Lisa, who asked that only her first name be used, now earns just $9.10 an hour, or about $13,000 a year on part-time hours. Seven months pregnant, she recently filed for bankruptcy. With no alternatives at hand, Walmart now seems like a dead-end to poverty, she says.

"I don’t have underwear without holes in them," she said. "Everyone at work wears T-shirts that are threadbare. I have just enough to eat and get gas to make it to work for the next two weeks."

Lisa's experience sheds light on why a group claiming to represent tens of thousands of Walmart workers nationwide is planning strikes and other labor actions at as many as 1,000 stores next week on Black Friday, the biggest shopping day of the year. The actions are intended to protest what the group says are meager wages.

Walmart wages are the same as Target. Why does everyone pick on Walmart and not Target?

they are another obsession with the left, like talk radio and fox news

Walmart is owned by identifiable people, which makes hating much easier than some faceless corporation.

 

[SniperFire]

As a matter of principle, many Leftards refuse to shop Walmart and buy all of their Chinese and Bangladesh merchandise from Target instead.



LOL

Target spends more on advertising. Both are equally horrible.

Target as bad as Walmart?

No, we buy it at Costco...where they pay a living wage and provide benefits.

 

[Stephanie]

We need to buy our chinese made stuff at Macys and pay a high price for them..then people won't be degraded as Walmart shoppers

I guess that's probably true. What is even worse is Target charges quite a bit more yet they pay roughly the same wages and benefits.

I don't shop at K-Mart, Wal-Mart. Or Target. I shop at Mom and Pop store. I live in a small town.
