[bedowin62]

ur right leftard; let's switch that and pay the Walmarts 100,000 or so employees $1.6 million an hour EACH and the CEO minimum wage; because that makes SOOOOOOOOO much more sense right??

Why Raising Wages at Walmart Would Make America Healthier

Even if it doesn't make America Healthier its the right thing to do. Sick and tired of 6 rich assholes that run Wal Mart being worth more than the lower 40% of Americans. Either do the right thing or whine from the gallows about how we can't do this to you Walton's! I hope its a union of Wal Mart workers that starts a revolution that brings down the rich elite assholes....Maybe with Bernie Sanders help us!

They already did dumb ass

Think he's worth it???
The Wal-Mart Greeter

So I landed my new job as a Wal-Mart greeter (a good way to pass some time and get a few bucks for retirees like me).

My job lasted less than a day.

You probably want to know the story. Everyone does.

Well, about two hours into my first day on the job a very loud, unattractive, mean-acting woman walked into the store with her two kids, yelling obscenities at them all the way through the entrance.

As I had been instructed, I said pleasantly, "Good morning and welcome to Wal-Mart. Nice children you have there. Are they twins?

The ugly woman stopped yelling, and stopped in her tracks.

"Hell no, they ain't twins," she said in the same loud voice, glaring at me. "The oldest one's 9, and the other one's 7."

"Oh," I said.

"Why the hell would you think they're twins?" she continued, still using such a loud voice that all the other customers were also stopping and turning to look at us standing there at the entrance. "Are you blind, or just stewpid?"

"I'm neither blind nor stupid, Ma'am," I replied -- loud enough for everyone to hear, but calmly and in the politest of tones. "I just couldn't believe someone slept with you twice. Have a good day and thank you for shopping at Wal-Mart."

She just stood there dumb-struck, but all the other customers -- every last one of them smiling and giggling, immediately turned and continued on their ways.

But my supervisor said I probably wasn't cut out for this line of work.

artificial ceilings (i.e rent subsidies) and artificial floors (minimum wage) are harmful period.

i really wish left-wing nutjobs would take an economics 101 course

6 people hoarding more wealth than 42% of Americans COMBINED is harmful. I really wish the idiots slobbering on the Koch brothers knobs would take an economics 101 course.

here's a fucking economic course for you.

There is no such thing as hoarding wealth, since our dollar is not based on anything except credit. If the government had to have have $1 worth of gold for every $1 in currency, then yes you could hoard wealth, but since that isn't true, wealth can't be hoarded.

You're welcome
