If they don't like their wage, work somewhere else.But you people keep saying Walmart employees are lazy and have no skills. Why are you now claiming they'd have been able to work a pipeline?One reason.
Thousands of new government regulations passed each year by Democrats? Crappy trade deals that send our jobs overseas? Obamatard's stubborn refusal to allow the Keystone pipeline to be built which would create thousands of higher paying middle class jobs? Stop me when you have heard enough.
Yes corporations sending jobs overseas and bringing in legal workers are certainly a problem. Keystone? Really? Have you seen the cost of oil?
Yes Keystone the unions were begging for those jobs and Obama and the liberals told them to piss off. Explain it, you can't.
The grass is greener on the other side of the fence for most people, it's up to you to make it better, no one will do that for you.If they don't like their wage, work somewhere else.But you people keep saying Walmart employees are lazy and have no skills.

Is it your perception that if you keep posting that it will magically come true? It won't. But post it again. Your inability to comprehend the nature of the problem is entertaining, in a sad sort of way.

Your plan doesn't add up. It would never work.
Oh and what part doesn't add up for you professor?
The part where the corporation saves enough in taxes to compensate for the increased cost of wages doesn't add up.
Why not? You republicans run around saying our corporations are the most taxed in the world. Are you now saying they aren't? Walmart for instance would have an extra 7.1 billion.
Wal-Mart as 1,000,000 employees. Paying them all an extra $1.00/hr means an additional $20 billion in payroll costs. That's more than their entire profit for the year.
I realize you won't get this because math is hard for leftwing turds.
How many employees they have on welfare?

Unless they are on probation, they most certainly do.
How does that differ from a thug extorting money from a business at gunpoint?So instead of teaching the bottom 40% how to earn that type of wealth...
The answer's self-evident: Have a wealthy grandfather leave you billions.
May we assume you're at least a millionaire?
We do not have two pennies to rub together. But that doesn't give us the authority to steal the Walton's wealth.
.
No one's asking you to steal anything. Like Ronald Reagan, we expect American corporations to pay their fair share. "Zero" - in the case of 20 American corporations - is not a "fair share."
Again, I'm amazed that the Rightists are so unwilling to demand that Apple, at least, pay some taxes.

Let the waltons be, envy really makes America an ugly place...
By paying so little their workers are on welfare, the government grows. I think that is a bad thing. You must love big government.
The government grows because libturds and all the people who get a check from the government (is there a distinction?) want it to grow.
And those people get a check from the gov because their employer hoses them. Either the gov or the employers need to provide for them. If you want small gov the only answer is the employer. This isn't so hard to understand.
No, they get a check from the government because they do a job that doesn't command a better paycheck.
No, they get SNAP benefits (not "a check" - you people can't even get that right) because Walmart is the only employer for miles around. Many of these workers owned their own stores before Walmart steamrolled in and put them out of business. I thought you people respected small business owners? But not compared to your worship of Walmart.
Keep praying. When Walmart goes bust, decent employers will fill the vacuum.

You are kidding.....I hope.
People have been moving since the dawn of time. With kids in school and elderly parents. And your mortgage is your business.
Or do you really believe that is an entitlement ?

Bernie Sanders says Walmart heirs own more wealth than bottom 40 percent of Americans
Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, an independent who caucuses with Democrats, tweeted a startling statistic to his followers on July 22, 2012: "Today the Walton family of Walmart own more wealth than the bottom 40 percent of America."
Sanders speaks and writes frequently about wealth distribution in the U.S., a hot-button issue among liberals and a rallying cry of the Occupy Wall Street Movement.
The Waltons, of course, are members of the proverbial 1 percent. But are they really sitting on that much wealth? We decided to check it out.
First, what is wealth?
In economics, wealth is commonly measured in terms of net worth, and it’s defined as the value of assets minus liabilities. For someone in the middle class, that could encompass the value of their 401(k) or other retirement accounts, bank savings and personal assets such as jewelry or cars, minus what they owe on a home mortgage, credit cards and a car note.
It does not include income -- what people earn in wages. For that reason, someone who earns a good salary but has little savings and owes a lot of money on their house would have a negative net worth.
In fact, because so many Americans invest in real estate to buy a home, middle-class wealth has been one of the biggest casualties of the housing-driven recession.
From 2007 to 2010, typical families lost 39 percent of their wealth, according to the Federal Reserve’s Survey of Consumer Finances, done every three years. In 2007, the median family net worth was $126,400. In 2010, it was $77,300, according to the survey.
Where the Waltons fit in
Six members of the Walton family appear on the Forbes 400 list of the wealthiest Americans. Christy Walton, widow of the late John Walton, leads the clan at No. 6 with a net worth of $25.3 billion as of March 2012. She is also the richest woman in the world for the seventh year in a row, according to Forbes. Here are the other five:
No. 9: Jim Walton, $23.7 billion
No. 10: Alice Walton, $23.3 billion
No. 11: S. Robson Walton, oldest son of Sam Walton, $23.1 billion
No. 103: Ann Walton Kroenke, $3.9 billion
No. 139: Nancy Walton Laurie, $3.4 billion
Ask your hero:How does that differ from a thug extorting money from a business at gunpoint?So instead of teaching the bottom 40% how to earn that type of wealth...
The answer's self-evident: Have a wealthy grandfather leave you billions.
May we assume you're at least a millionaire?
We do not have two pennies to rub together. But that doesn't give us the authority to steal the Walton's wealth.
