Republican SNAP Proposals Could Take Food Away From Millions of Low-Income Individuals and Families

Plenty more could be done with Walmart if it were a worker-owned co-op. They would save LOTS OF MONEY.

how much would they give out that wasn't already given out?

 

[jc456]

Yep $20 per hour for a high school kids seems right where it should be.

based on?

No sir, we're not. You assume that if Walmart was owned and operated by its workers collectively, they would be conducting business within the exact same constraints as Walmart does today, with identical priorities and responsibilities, and you're wrong. The outcome of Walmart's business operations wouldn't be identical or even similar to what they are today, and that includes its potential. Your so-called "math" is being misapplied to Walmart in a completely different context and form. Remember I said, if Walmart continues to exist, in a more socialistic society, it would take a different form?

If Walmart because a worker-owned coop, the outfit would collapse.

It would take time of course, but they would fall behind other retailers as there would be motivation to not increase productivity and reduce jobs, renovate their stores, etc. K Mart and Sears didn't keep up with the times and now are gone.

Walmart would face the same fate, if they used their effort to promote housing for its employees instead of a more tremendous shopping experience for its customers.

then how would they be able to hire other workers and pay them?

It is a wonder they keep finances at home.

So you have a problem with an emoyer paying a kid $20 per hour? What difference does it make?

fk no, I was responding to your insane statement. Why did you avoid bringing that into the conversation, I know, it was rhetorical. I still would like to know where you got your info from.

There are hundreds of employee-owned companies in this Country. Hundreds.

Publix is one of them and they have over 250,000 employees. A friend of mine just retired from Lincoln Electric in Cleveland and it's employee-owned, more or less. And they are some of the highest paid employees on the Planet.

It's kinda funny, and I do mean ha-ha funny..... socialism and communism work better in this country than it does in socialist and communist countries.

But American socialist and communist scumbags don't really want either. Instead they want 'Free Shit' and that's all they're concerned about.

If they were serious (they're not, they're just whining little girls) they'd get a job at one of these companies --

The Employee Ownership 100: America's Largest Majority Employee-Owned Companies

The NCEO’s Employee Ownership 100 list ranks the largest broad-based employee-owned companies in the US. To be on the list, companies must be at least 50% employee-owned; most on the list are 100%. Collectively, these broad-based plans employ close to 685,000 people.

It’s on you creating dependency

 

[FredVegbarfuss]

It is easy to be dismissive when you are doing well, without being thoughtful. But things happen in life, in which that can be lost, and you grow old and older anyway. You would then become dependent for some income or food aid coming. It is not wise to not care about what help is taken away from those with disability and all the elderly who would not longer have the work the younger would be doing. Provision for them is in the interest of us all.

We already have Social Security for the disabled and elderly.

But we should not be giving food stamps to able-bodied people in their 20s through 50s who refuse to get even a part-time job.

Don't be stupid. Of course they have to eat enough to work. Those Amazon packages aren't going to fulfill themselves
