An even better solution is for all the WM haters to make and give jobs to all WM employees and pay them the 'living wage' they think is adequate.
Excellent idea.
They could also just "TIP" the cashiers as they are paying. Whatever amount they feel is appropriate.
Or they could stop shopping there. If enough of them do that WalMart will go out of businesses and those 2.1 million WalMart employees can go find better paying jobs. Becasue, as we know, WalMart is forcing them to work there now. They are not aloowed to find better paying employment on their own. LOLs.
The lack of conservative knowledge about one of the worst companies in American history never ceases to amaze me. A hundred years ago you'd all be defending Standard Oil and telling people to go back to working 12 hours a day seven days a week.
Wal Mart is a dreadful company that encourages overconsumption and uses tax dollars to subsidize the enormous wealth of a handful of people. We'd all be better off if the company went out of business yesterday.
Walmart is the main blame for the recession. I think Obama could mandate they shut down and lock the doors, and nationalize all that money.
All the groceries they sell cheap is causing American obesity rates to far exceed anything McDonalds and KFC could do combined.

Just wanted to see what the consensus is on all the jobs that Walmart provides Americans.
Walmart is a net drain on jobs, and that is an indisputable fact. Wherever a Walmart opens, they drive small local businesses out of business and those jobs, selling cheap foreign made goods. Once the competition is killed, the prices rise due to no alternatives being available, as they monopolize sales and profits that are sucked out of the local economies and funneled into the massive corportae coffers that will not be put back into the local economy, save for the paultry wages paid to their Walmart Sheep they call employees.
The massive movement of foreign product also hurts American manufacturing too, driving them out of business and the loss of all of those jobs too.
Walmart is basically a mass distribution outlet for foreign goods, destroying both American Manufacturing and Industry, as well as local economies from the inside out. And it seems all to easy to convince a population to destroy themselves with the offer of a dollar off, and a bunch of minimum wage jobs.
But hey, if you can convince people to behave like wild animals over a $10 toaster oven, or a $200 pair of Air Jordans ..... well .... this is like shooting fish in a barrel.

The blind agreeing with the blind. And no matter how much someone might explain reality to you, you'll respond with similar nonsense.
I don't hate Wally World and if someone wants to work there, hey, it's a job. I certainly wouldn't aspire to make it a career, though. I view it as something to do while going to school or finding the perfect job or better paying job, much like people who work for McD's or some place like that.
Wally World scares me but not because of Wally World itself, rather, it's scary because of the people who go there:
I doubt this is company policy. But so what if it is? Letting someone know where they can get financial assistance when they need it is a problem????? lols.
Maybe if the government lowered taxes these WalMart employees could keep more of their paycheck and they wouldn'y need to look for government assistance. Just a thought.
There is plenty of information out there on this cess pool to quickly learn that yes, they do this. Perhaps if the government forced wm to pay their taxes as well as tax the goods that are coming into this country, then the citizens of this nation would not be hurting so.
Blaming WalMart for this recession is also extremely asinine; where did THAT absurd line of reasoning come from?
