DC's Minimum Wage Really Does Cost Jobs At Walmart

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Since you can't say specifically, "a lot" means nothing. The person is getting paid what their skills are worth and you have a problem with equality. Nothing wrong with that.

Uh huh, ''Whatever the Market decides to pay", and all that. Blah Blah Blah. Heard it all before. Our Minimum Wage is an absolute embarrassment. It's shocking to the rest of the civilized developed world. How can a nation so wealthy treat its People so poorly? The answer is, because companies like Walmart exist.

That the government mandates an employer do with his money what the government thinks is right is an embarrassment. That it's greater than $0 is an embarrassment. That people with shitty skills think they should be paid as if they had some higher ones is an embarrassment.

If someone with $8/hr skills gets $8/hr, that's not treating them poorly. Last time I looked, $8 = $8. Funny how so many who argue for equality don't follow it when it comes to something they don't agree with.

They're arguing for humanity. Something Walmart and criminal scum like Alice Walton don't have. You really should reconsider being a loyal Walmart shopper.

They're DEMANDING a handout. If someone is being paid what their skills are worth, it isn't inhumane.

If they were being paid $4/hr for $8/hr skills, you would have an argument. They're not. You simply don't like equality.

$8/hr is a pathetic disgrace in today's America. If you don't see that, there's no possibility of reasoning with you. We as a nation can do better. We can treat our Workers better.

People at McDonald's are making $9.00 an hour here. Who do you know that makes $8 an hour?

Fewer people being taught how to go on Medicaid and Food Stamps...Sounds good to me.

What the fuck you talking about? The stores they were going to open up was around 450 jobs. Where their is no FUCKING jobs.

The three stores that opened up in the D.C. area had like 5,000 applicants for only 300 jobs if memory serves me correctly.

In case you were unaware, Walmart instructs their low wage employees how to apply for Medicaid and Food Stamps.
No Walmart jobs = no extra Middle Class Tax Payer money going to support low wage Walmart employees.
Smaller stores with less leeching government power will fill the gap.

In case you are unaware no small business filled that gap in D.C. you idiot.

Than tough. I don't need a Walmart in my area teaching people how to suck up more of my tax money.

You would rather have more unemployed people sucking up twice as much money.

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Oh, well then it's ok to treat them like worthless slaves. Pretty much sums up the average loyal cheapskate Walmart Shopper mentality. Folks who think that way are usually greedy white Republican douches. Another good reason to avoid Walmart. Too many of its loyal customers are just plain assholes.

My own brother did little or nothing to improve his skill set until he was well into his 30s, working minimum to slightly higher than minimum wage jobs. He learned his lesson and now works in a field where they cannot keep enough workers to meet the demand, so he no longer has to worry about getting or finding work.

Inner city workers without any chance at any type of employment will never get that chance to improve themselves.

Still not a valid justification for treating workers like worthless slaves. We can do better. We can treat our fellow Americans better. And we can start by encouraging other companies to not adopt Walmart's unethical and immoral practices.

What's unethical and immoral about paying someone with $8/hr skills $8/hr?

Paul is mad because he's been stuck working the fry station for a while now.

Yeah you said that already. Got anything else? Another good reason to not shop at Walmart. Most of its customers really are dumb dipshits.

Then don't shop there! Why is that so hard for you to get through your thick cranium?

You're right, I should only shop at McDonalds, because their fry cook is a genius.

You represent another good reason to not shop at Walmart. Most of its customers do seem to be greedy gross little dumbasses. You guys help create a very unpleasant shopping experience. You do seem like one of those classic Walmart mongoloid shoppers.

You probably walk around the store farting, yelling obnoxious gibberish, ripping packages apart, throwing em on the ground, and so on. Basically, being disgusting and annoying. I definitely don't miss you mongoloids. It's been great shopping elsewhere. I actually have a somewhat peaceful enjoyable shopping experience now. I'll never go back.

You need psychiatric help, immediately!

I'm sure you would feel differently if you'd been born crippled. Nobody asks to be born, nobody has anything to say about where they will be born or who their parents will be. Nobody has any input on their IQ. Arrogance is the sorriest goddam premise in mankind and because of the Alpha Male syndrome it's never been addressed. If power is money and most of it is inherited in one way or another from the previous generation the less than fully intelligent can forget ever getting a break........at least in the eyes of those who usually end up controlling things:

What a fucking loser cop out retort.

Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you deal with it.

Yes, I believe the Founding Fathers said that when they were shooting and stabbing their fellow Brits.

One Walmart shopper mongoloid on this thread already summed them up perfectly. He openly stated he doesn't care about the man Alice Walton killed. They even went as far as to blame him. That, despite her her ugly bloody history hehind the wheel.

They're greedy mutants. As long as they get that shitty Chinese slave-made blender or microwave, they're happy. They have no clue they're only supporting their own demise when they give more money to criminal cretins like Alice Walton.

But check out this interesting take...

Why The Age Of Walmart Is Over

I live in east TN. We have some of the least educated, most ignorant, obviously arrogant people in the country right around here within 100 miles of Knoxville. I'm old and I spend more time in the waiting rooms of doctors than ever before and sometimes the level of conversation from the ignorant drives me to get up and walk out before my appointment time. What I see is the reason the solid south votes Republican. They vote against their own interests. Most of them draw monthly checks from the government and still vote Republican. Now that takes an ignorant bastard:

What does that image have to do with what you are yapping about? Not a darn thing!

Especially when it's being paid to someone with $5/hr skills.

You don't want reasoning, you want agreement.

If you want to pay someone more than their skills are worth, start a business and do so with YOUR money.

Who the hell is the WE? Sounds to me like you consider we as people like you demanding someone else doing the paying pay what you think an employee should make. Not how it works unless it's your money.

I think the problem with this Thread is the confusion between Walmart in specific and the general concession that Tax Payers, via political deals, have to subsidize non-skilled labor.

If someone is unskilled, why is it the responsibility of others to offset the results, many times the fault of the person with low skills?

For example, if someone quits high school while a freshman, in essence having only an 8th grade education, why should those of us who finished and went well beyond that be accountable to take care of them? Why is it our place to pay for their bad choices?

I've had similar questions like yours asked of me. Not the same wording but the same context. My response to them was let those who think one group should fund another group's bad choices voluntarily do it. If someone quits high school, to use my example, and now can't make it financially, let the bleeding hearts who think they deserve help prove it by paying their bills for them.

It's not my responsibility to pay for someone else's bad choices.

Most of them draw a monthly check from the government? Proof please.

Within 100 miles of Knoxville all the old coal miners are still around and since they strip mined everything there's little work left for them. They find it more profitable to continue on the draw. I didn't mention the 20% of them who claim to be disabled and draw from early social security. This is not a joke.....this is real:

If the part you're disagreeing with is voting Republican...nearly everybody in east TN always votes Republican. I've voted Democrat in three presidential elections.....lost every vote. In 2008 only six of the ninety five counties voted Democrat:

People like you have said my State is one of those that gets more than it provides. The interesting part about that is there is 1 blue district and 6 red districts with the only blue district being the poorest, by far, and getting much more than the closest red district. In fact, at one point, that blue district was #10 of 435 in how much it received.

I am, but if a company can't pay a minimum living wage based on locality, don't open a store.
One locality might need $8.00/hour, another might need $9.56/hour.
