Interesting how liberals narrate that its Republicans who represent the wealthy. Once again they're wrong, but as usual they're just parroting what they've been told. Reality has nothing to do with liberal rhetoric.

Jeff Bezos (Amazon) and the Waltons (Walmart) are the wealthiest people on Earth. They have a combined wealth of over a 1/4 trillion dollars. They're also bottom dwellers of humanity. Of course they lean Democrat, ask yourself why. They could give a flying fuck about anyone but themselves.

They pay their employees in small rations, thus a large portion of their employees are on WELFARE. The taxpayer is supporting their employees so they're raping all of us. I don't care how conservative/free-market/capitalist a person is, this is inexcusable. This isn't capitalism, they're practicing socialism.

Not sure, perhaps shop someplace else where the business model doesn't bend over humanity.

One possibility is if someone (owner) meets a criteria with employees on welfare, they're fined to pay for that welfare.

If Walmart were to fire all their welfare receiving employees, would the taxpayers save any money?

How much?

Nothing, capitalism works like this, if you don't like a corporation don't shop with them, if you don't like what they pay don't work for them. If you don't have the skills to find better employment get the skills

Yet you voted to give them and their businesses massive permanent tax cuts, and you hope to give them more. At the cost of yours expiring soon, which you applaud like a good little idiot.

They aren't practicing Socialism either. They're practicing Corporatism. The only time in this countries existence where we even remotely resembled Capitalism, was when the wealthy paid 80 to 90%. Since then, the wealthy make 270% more because of the tax cuts versus the 99% flat wages. And it still hasn't changed. Introducing Ed's 'vulture chart'

That is a counter argument coming from a total ignoramus. Don't you people get it? There is no Capitalism. It's all Corporatism. Corporatism loves you, because you do their bidding for them. Do any of you understand the real meaning of Capitalism? It's when all of us are involved with the chance to do well. The first time we go and give big tax breaks for the wealthy, we are "IMMEDIATELY" left out of the game of Capitalism. That truth cannot be more clearer than what is proven from the Vulture chart; Introducing Ed's 'vulture chart' Wake up! Get a clue. Educate yourself. Stop being stupid.

Sure you do. Corporations could care less whether you shop their or not. That's why it's called Corporatism. Once they own the general public, the general public become slaves to their products. And how is that? Because they are already super rich for one, second, they already have accounts overseas and pay no taxes, and third, they have the luxury to move their manufacturing plants overseas to become even richer if they decide to. All at the convenience and enrichment because of tax cuts.

There is no such thing as Corporations creating jobs because of tax cuts. Corporations are created to make money, not jobs. If Everyone in the U.S. stopped shopping at Walmart, they'd tell the consumers and their employees good riddance. They've already made their gold because of forty years of tax breaks.

Tax breaks for the wealthy has been the single most harmful economic policy this country has ever seen, because it puts both employees and consumers in bondage, beholding to those corporations.

Both are actually examples of capitalism at its most pure. Capitalism is much like evolution, the strong survive and thrive, the weakest die off

I stopped reading your nonsense after this "That is a counter argument coming from a total ignoramus"

Therefore I cannot admit to anything other than you're a troll

Then it was never Capitalism to begin with. Capitalism was set up for all people to take part in the game. It was never designed for the 1% only. That is why people experienced their greatest quality of life for their buck when companies were taxed at 80 to 90%. Corporations during those decades worked for us, and we prospered. Now it's the other way around.

And you are exhibit A why this country is stuck on stupid. You can't debate my argument, so the next best thing to do, is to run from it. Again, Yawn" is a counter argument for losers.
 
Its more like this: those able to buy off politicians survive, while everybody else is left to fend for themselves.

Actual reality is more like this.
Bernie Sanders has called out both of them.
Bernie Sanders called out Jeff Bezos for poor treatment of Amazon workers.

Bernie Sanders Calls Wal-Mart Walton Family Wealth Unacceptable. As you can see he calls out this same stuff you are. Youre on the same page as a "socialist" (actually he's a democratic socialist)

Under capitalism everyone is in the game and has a chance to win, but not everyone will. Capitalism does not ensure victory, just the chance for it.
 
Personally, I'm still waiting to see what happens when people become educated on the subject before talking about capitalism vs socialism. Because most of the time, these conversations about as useful as coat color when distinguishing dogs from cats.

Don't get me wrong, if someone buried their own grave having five kids and a career at Walmart, that's on the parents.

It's difficult to "shop elsewhere" when the lowest prices are located at monopolies of sorts.
