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

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.


*cough*

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

Finish the story

Who else?

Like it use to be, the welfare recipients
 
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?


Is this what is really happening?
 
It's tragically obvious that leftists are gearing up once again for a Democratic economy built on low income service industry jobs and government handouts.

You lost me on this. Our economy is built on capitalism. Republican economies are all about rich people getting richer and poor people getting poorer. Democrats simply want to fix that idiocy.

please start your own business and pay people 30 dollars an hour to flip burgers.
I'm suprised that more college grads aren't getting an exciting career in the fast food industry.
 
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.
....IF only you an inkling of how businesses actually survive outside the liberal bubble
 
Something is wrong when some of our largest employers rely on the government to support their low wage employees. That means you and I are subsidizing Walmart's profit margin.

Perhaps you forgot that they also Get FREE Rent and healthcare?

Something is wrong when someone without any job skills is too lazy to better themselves.
 
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.

Contradicting the conservative racist and classist fairytale, 70% of Americans receiving federal assistance in some form or another work full time. Of those Americans who are fully employed, most of them work in the private sector—the sector Republicans like to call the “job creators.” More than half of recipients of Medicaid and SNAP work 50 to 52 weeks a year. For a reference point: There are only 52 weeks in a year. And as The Washington Post points out, Walmart and McDonald’s are at the top of list of employers with business models that rely on the American taxpayer to pay for their workers’ health, food, and housing.

No, Something is really wrong when the people keep voting for politicians who enable the many various forms of welfare they can qualify for

Hence "Late stage socialism"
 
The fact is unions protect most all workers union members or not. Unions keep the wage scales up thus those who want the best workers must meet that union wage scale to hire. Unions protect workers from
unfair employer practices.

Now Single Payer Insurance would be the absolute best insurance any worker could have because it would eliminate bankruptcies due to medical bills and would eliminate UNDER-INSURED polices the industry
shells out like drunken sailors. And would eliminate citizens from being denied medical care because they could not afford the coverage necessary. All of us would be paying into this coverage so that all of us could
have the best coverage ever........which also means this insurance is not free.
 
Essentially Walmart, Amazon, McDonalds, Dollar Tree, FedEx and others are billing taxpayers to support their workers. This is every reason to boycott these corporations. And to think
how many tax breaks and loopholes these corporations demand to avoid paying taxes. Remember Wal-Mart and Amazon are not the best prices always.....consumers get duped by their
advertising.

SHOP AROUND is the smartest and most fiscally responsible way to shop. The SHOP AROUND tool will save you money. Don't get anxious EVERYTHING goes on sale sometime which often is the
best avenue to top quality merchandise.

Don't want to use Fedex ..... use the post office. First Class mail is excellent service which is why USPS should never go to private corporations such as FedEX.
