Walmart Is Raising Wages And Giving Bonuses, Citing Tax Cuts (Every Democrat Voted Against This)

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

You are full of shit. Less than 4% of farms have more than a million in value of products sold. Almost 20% of farms have a value of products less than $25,000

Owned by whom?

(that went right over your head, didn't it?)

Owned by the farmer working the land. The myth of all farms owned by large Corps is just that, a fucking myth. That 20% is more than 400,000 separate, unique individual operations

The article provided no proof or evidence that the tax cut had anything to do with the Walmart increase of wage. Again; "correlation does not imply causation."

If all else fails....read the fricken link.
Title: Wal-Mart Raises Hourly Wage to $11 in Wake of Tax Overhaul
First line: boosting its starting hourly wage to $11 and delivering bonuses to employees, capitalizing on the U.S. tax overhaul to stay competitive in a tightening labor market.

 

[Thinker101]

$11 x 40 = $440 a week x 52 = $22,880 a year.

Wow! That's a lot of money.

And leave them with joke healthcare.

Walmart Health Insurance Could Leave A Really Sick Worker Broke

Even many thousands of full-time workers employed by the company could find that a single serious illness or hospitalization could break them financially with deductibles and out-of-pocket expenses high enough to consume much of a year's earnings.

Republicans see over a million people getting fukked and what do they think about that?

You have to remember also that for WalMart most full time employees do not get 40 hours a week.

Yes indeed, and you can thank Obama for that.

Walmart made $14B in profit last year.

It didn't need a tax cut to increase worker wages.

My apologies, didn't realize you were judge and jury on how much a company should and should not make.

they have to pay more just to keep people working in those shitholes v going to work at Amazon

Individual operations owned by whom.

Dude, that is the biggest scam on Earth. They don't get the farm aid if they have a big operation, so the conglomerate a bunch of individual "family"-looking farms.

From "Farm Policy Factcheck, an organization dedicated to making sure we keep shelling out billions to save farmers, in their puff piece trying to make us all believe that our tax dollars are helping struggling families: Fact Check: Corporate Farms Vs. Family Farms - Farm Policy Facts
"To get a better sense of just how many people are lumped into USDA’s small farm category, ERS shed some light.

• Approximately 17 percent of U.S. farms (346,489 farms to be exact) are considered “retirement farms” — that is, their operators are officially retired but still grow a little bit on a small scale.
• 868,523 farms, or 42 percent of America’s farms, are run by people with off-farm jobs."

So, a bunch of play farms.

"The other 75 percent of the country’s farm productivity falls to the 10 percent of farms with more than $350,000 in sales — the same group that farm critics want to leave vulnerable by gutting the farm safety net. Talk about short sighted."

Who cares about the productivity. Those big-ass farms don't need the constant farm aid. And FUCK the play farms.

Good for Wal-Mart

Last month, after the tax cuts were passed, salaries nationwide went up nine cents
Rather than cherry pick a few employers, lets see how salaries increase nationwide before we celebrate tax cuts

Good for Wal-Mart? You mean good for Wal-Mart's employees, right?
As a leftist, you will never celebrate conservative, capitalist economic freedom.

Lets see how much of a 50% tax cut trickles down to employees

Nine cents an hour last month
Employers nationwide have a long way to go

As if labor is the only business expense.

Yes all other expenses have gone up.......supplies, taxes, insurance, transportation
The minimum wage has remained frozen for 9 years

Okay, good. Now follow the bouncing ball:

Taxes lower - wages higher. If taxes are low enough, do we even need a minimum wage?

That is very nice, but it was still Walmart policy prior to Obama and ObamaCare that full time employees were not promised 40 hours.

They have to leave flexibility for managers to cut the workforce when sales are down.

You're the one saying the tax cut was the reason for this...I'm telling you the facts show that Walmart could increase worker wages if it wanted without a tax cut. The fact that they do so now is suspicious.

Yes. We need a minimum wage because without one, American workers would have to accept the same wages and working conditions Third World workers get to remain competitive.

So why do you want to drag down the standard of living to that of China or India?

Taxes never go to the people, they stay in the career politicians pockets that’s for sure

A call out to help those who handed Walmart hundreds of millions of dollars.

Tell me why a company that ranked 11th in highest profits, could not afford to do this without the tax cut.

Because we are an overtaxed society, you fucking moron. LOL

Well, lets see here, Walmart raises their wage and give bonuses and it is very admiral. Except they have planned this out so they really are not giving a dime more from their profits with the abrupt closing of some Sams clubs this morning from Texas to Michigan, therefore, saving on their labor costs and overall operating costs. Not to menton, they will end up laying off thousands of cashiers within a year as they go automated. So although this is good for some employee's and good PR it's really smoke and mirrors.
