[EdwardBaiamonte]

Divide that by 100, and you're getting closer.

Do you occasionally read someone's threads other than your own so you know what's going on?

Now you're going to do your "Do you have the IQ to understand" riff, aren't you?

Fed state county and local govt spend $8 trillion a year that people cant spend at Walmart so Walmart cant raise prices and pay higher wages

 

[baileyn45]

Welfare is not why their prices are low, it's why their wages are low.

dear, Americans pay $8trillion in taxes so of course they can afford much less and Walmart must charge less and pay less. Econ 101

They pay nothing of the kind. That's almost half the GDP.

Actually, estimates of fed, state, local tax revenues for 2015 are 6.15 tr.

$5 trillion is chump change???
econ 101

We spend $600 billion a year on welfare, not $5 trillion.

So much for your Econ knowledge.

We spend an additional $1.2 trillion a year on tax expenditures (literally twice as much as welfare), a large part of which is a massive transfer of wealth up the food chain.

 

[PaintMyHouse]

No Welfare, no Walmart.

How much would it cost if they didn't work at Walmart?

Wrong question, the questions is how much less would it cost if they got paid a living wage?

dear, Walmart is shrinking and going bankrupt paying a wage that is is 10 times the living wage in Africa. Do you understand?
