Lets force Walmart, at gunpoint, to give $5/hour raise because we are so caring

[EdwardBaiamonte]

Liberals would destroy Walmart just as Stalin destroyed soviet economy:

Walmart by the numbers:

Revenue $482 Billion
profit $14 Billion
$5 raise $11 billion
profit after raise $ 3

Cut retail profits by 80% and cause another liberal Great Depression tomorrow!! And lets never be tricked, this is but one of 10001 interventions a liberal will want because the liberal will lack the ability to understand capitalism!!

 

[HenryWallace]

Huh?

Walmart has been voluntarily raising wages already. They are doing it to attract better talent and hopefully retain it.

Which is strange, because Repubs always say raising the minimum wage will lead to robots at the checkouts and mass layoffs

Which is a strong indication that forcing businesses to raise their labor cost is not a good idea. When business conditions are right, they will do so on their own.

 

[HenryWallace]

But I thought prices for stuff would skyrocket and there would be mass layoffs at Walmart with a minimum wage increase?

I guess JP Morgan is about to bust too. They upped their minimum pay as well

obviously if you must raise wages to the point where robots are cheaper you then buy robots rather than workers.

Trump's massive tariffs will cripple them worse than any minimum wage

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

raising the minimum wage will lead to robots at the checkouts and mass layoffs

obviously, given that robots are always getting cheaper while liberals are always making labor more expensive. This kind of pure economic ignorance is how Stalin Mao and Wallace slowly starved 120 million to death.

there will be no tariffs, his advisers already said it is a bargaining chip.

Liberals make labor more expensive? I guess I didn't know Doug McMillan was a comrade at arms

"art of the deal" says to reveal that something is just a bargaining chip as soon as possible to the other negotiating party.

You sure? Many in the new populist GOP have been bragging about Reagan's tariffs in support of up to a 45% tariff against China and other soon to be enemy nations

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

Liberals make labor more expensive?

yes liberals make labor more expensive for example
the liberal corporate taxes make our prices much higher, for example
liberal regulations make things more expensive, for example

pure libcommie economic ignorance made Wallace indirectly responsible for slowly staving 120 million to death.

45% means depression, business is betting on opposite. Makes sesne?

So it doesn't cause economic strife, and is actually good business, at the world's largest private employer. But if it is applied on a broad scale it will fail miserably!

This from the people who brought (and continue to bring) trickle down economics!

You should tell that to Trump voters. They voted for massive tariffs. Go preach your gospel to them, since they're the ones who currently want massive artificial controls on the free market, and liberals won't be able to do anything for at least 2 years.

You can't comprehend trickle up poor?

Another one that has no idea what wealth is huh?

so you don't want trickle down economics but you want libcommieism( trickle down welfare) after it killed 120 million??

They voted for massive tariffs. .

I think they voted for fair trade so that we could sell in China as easily as they can sell here!!

Clever dodge. Now why exactly would something that works at the world's largest private employer not work writ large?
