Why the fuck do we allow the largest “employer” in America to pay such little wages that their “workers” qualify for government programs? Why do we allow this company to subsidize itself off the backs of the American tax payer, fueling their never ending sprawl that destroys local mom and pops across the country? Why do we allow them to force most workers into part time bullshit to avoid paying for benefits when their business model justifies more full time employees. What’s it going to take to get people to stand up against this shit? Walmart is hardly the only example.
We have no class consciousness. That’s why. The working class is divided against itself and would rather fight itself then band together and fight our oppressors.
People largely don’t vote. The informed voters are an even smaller slice of the pie chart. Even so, it seems most politicians can be bought for shockingly cheap.
Money would have to get out of politics, voting in any election big or small would need a paid holiday, voting itself would have to move off the first passed the post system, etcetera. There’s so many steps to be taken in order to get out from under the corporate boot it’s hard to keep track of them.
When the entire economic and political landscape has been turned into a casino, it’s a steep climb to beat the house at its own game.
While I agree, Walmart is also the highest paying job out of all the businesses within the closest three towns to where I live that doesn’t require any specific education.

Other jobs paying less is a result of the minimum wage being suppressed for far too long
And why do we allow people to take those jobs!?
