Walmart, Amazon, McDonalds, Dollar Tree, FedEx Rely On Having Workers On SNAP And Medicaid

[VanceMack]

It's obvious that Republicans cause recessions, and Democrats end them. Trump now joins Bush and Hoover as the Presidents who lost jobs on the way out.

It was under Obama-Biden that the biggest boom in oil jobs, and high paying jobs for electricians building data centers, commercial solar fields, and wind farms occurred.

And with the Trump recession, those 20 million people that lost jobs and now have to receive government handouts, are lucky considering what will be the 300,000 dead from Covid, due to what can only be criminal mismanagement, directly tied to the failure of the Trump administration.

The Chinese pandemic caused the global recession. Trumps economy was literally setting records before China ****ed everyone over.

And its rather comical that you attribute Obama Biden with success in the fossil fuel markets that they set out to destroy.

Obamas economy was built on the service industry jobs that idiot leftists aspire to. Far too many ****ing morons rush to college, assume massive debt, then aspire to a barista job where they feel like they should get paid the same as a corporate CEO.

One paycheck, for full-time employment, should be enough for anyone to live at the bare minimum. But greedy corporations have not been increasing wages, with the increases in the cost of living, for decades.

please start your own business and pay people 30 dollars an hour to flip burgers.

Government assistance is something that millions of Americans rely on. This is not simply an issue of people who have gainful employment versus those who do not. This is an issue of income inequality, stagnating wages, and employers who rely on welfare to heighten their profit margins. Tens of millions of military families rely on SNAP assistance to make ends meet. Politicians like Sen. Bernie Sanders have called for the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to study the relationship between federal assistance programs and employers.

On Nov. 18, GAO released their findings on the millions of Americans who work for such low wages that they must rely on federal assistance programs to scrape by. Contradicting the conservative racist and classist fairytale, 70% of Americans receiving federal assistance in some form or another work full time.

it would cost the government way more if they didn't have jobs.

You literally have no clue about running a business and hiring employees...do you?

Demonizing companies doing nothing wrong and offering no solutions..,sweet.

 

[Questerr]

That's why you voted for Biden - your love of the richest corporations and people on earth. Of course they and you want the government to pay their employees because they aren't making hundreds of billions more fastest enough. Do you cry that Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates and the WalMart heirs aren't trillionaires yet?

To be clear, what actions did or would Trump have taken against major corporation? Give them more tax breaks and cut more of their regulations?

 

[Simpletruther]

please start your own business and pay people 30 dollars an hour to flip burgers.

And there we have it. There are millions of liberals out there. Why are they not stepping up with capital to show walmart how a smart company should pay more to workers?

Start your own companies and show us.

Just another form of socialism in our country. But, Trumpkins who support #DiaperDonnie don't believe it.

What does this thread have to do with starting a business? Can't justify your position, so move the goal posts?

The Walton kids didn't start a business either. They inherited it from daddy. Which is the norm for most billionaire types on the right. Never worked a day in their worthless lives, but whine and cry because they have to actually pay the people that do, then whine some more because they have to pay taxes so the employees they stiff have to receive benefits as working people.

Like the worthless POS that currently squats in the White House. The one who used Marine One today to fly from his golf course to another vacation at Camp David.

Here's a solution for you sunshine. Repeal every tax cut given to corporations and billionaires since the 80's that destroyed the middleclass, and created the wealth inequality we have because of them.

As anyone with any amount of intellect can see, supply side, trickle down economics is a complete failure, but then again it was meant to be by design.

Of course these companies rely on it. It's corporate welfare at its finest. That's the American way.

This is called 'corporate welfare' i.e, money that should be paid to workers by the corporations, and not taxpayers.

 

[Kerry Won Ohio]

Biden is the most anti-trade union president ever to run for office. NO trade union wants another 20 million immigrants competing for jobs. No trade union loves Chinese child slave labor factories they want China Joe does.

If Biden is the most anti-union president ever, then you should be in love with him.

 

[Deuce]

please start your own business and pay people 30 dollars an hour to flip burgers.

Why? As a business owner I would be obligated to maximize profits no matter how much it makes my employees suffer.

 

[joko104]

That is a stupid statement. I was a union steward in a packinghouse and a Democratic primary precinct election judge. When I first stopped supporting Democrats was when I learned how rabidly the Democratic Party is in favor of companies using immigrants to shut down union facilities - as happened to the packinghouse I worked at years ago.
Try to name anything Biden has ever done that is pro trade-unions?

 

[joko104]

What a bizarre message. As business owners (wife) no employees are made to suffer to maximize profits. I take your message as a confession that you are purely amoral.

In fact, many small business owners sacrifice a lot for their employees. The mega billionaire international corporations and Big Tech - all whose primary profits are from slavery - don't. That's who supported Biden.

If unions are so important to you, then why do you vote Repug?? Big business has taken advantage of cheap immigrant labor for decades, and most of these big businesses support the Republican Party.

Union membership is way down over the past 40 years, thanks to Republicans' war on the middle class. You've been sold a bill of goods.

Your message is a lie. They only president since WW2 to try to stop illegal immigrants from stealing American jobs by the millions and not to reward shutting down American industry to move it and the jobs to China and other slave labor factories hsa been President Trump.

I'll play along and say that you're correct. Of course, you know what I really think.

Even if all that were true, that's not a justifiable reason to support a corrupt racist bully and traitor like Trump.

Because they have no friggen clue what they are talking about.
You are dealing with the "let them eat cake crowd".

They are the do as i say not as i do.

They want higher taxes i give them a link so they can send more of their own money to the government. They refuse to do it.
They want people to make 20-30 bucks an hour but refuse to start their own business and put their own capital at risk.

It’s not hypocrisy. I’m explaining why the free market cannot and will not accomplish this goal.

again they demand others do it but make excuses as to why they can't.

see people that is why there is no reason to engage in these discussions with them.

their entire argument is based on appeal to emotion.

Meh. Our economy depends on immigrants. Who else is going to pick our vegetables?

 

[RetiredUSN]

Why should the US Government get away with sending young men and women into endless wars while only paying them minimum wages, and leaving their families dependent on hand outs?

Shouldn't there be regulations against this form of inequality?
