Default Subsidizing labor costs for America's largest company

Yet more antecedental data on how the American people are
expected to subsidize the labor costs of some of America's
largest and most profitable companies.

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...tions/3636729/
snip
An advocacy group called Organization United for Respect is
chastising Walmart for setting out storage containers to
collect donations for employees who can't afford a
Thanksgiving dinner.

The web page and Facebook page of the group feature a photo
of two storage containers underneath a sign that says,
"Please donate food items here so Associates in Need can
enjoy Thanksgiving dinner."

I don't understand why charity was expected to cover the medical costs
resulting from the Boston Marathon terrorist attack on US foreign
policy.

Bull****, in other words.

There is no "subsidy" of labor costs for Wal-Mart.

Walmart gets huge subsidies because the wages they pay aren't fair. Taxpayers end up picking up the tab because Walmart employees have no choice other than to get food stamps to survive. As per usual, the worthless sock puppet is too ****ing stupid to understand this:

Because most insurance companies don't, perhaps?

It seems that welfare queens are back in the news these
days. The old stereotype was an inner-city unwed mother --
that’s dog-whistle-speak for black -- having multiple babies
to get ever bigger welfare checks (throw in a new Cadillac
and the myth is complete). Regardless, welfare reform of the
1990s ended that narrative.

No, the new welfare queens are even bigger, richer and less
deserving of taxpayer support. The two biggest welfare
queens in America today are Wal-Mart and McDonald's.

This issue has become more known as we learn just how far
some companies have gone in putting their employees on
public assistance. According to one study, American fast
food workers receive more than $7 billion dollars in public
assistance. As it turns out, McDonald's has a “McResource”
line that helps employees and their families enroll in
various state and local assistance programs. It exploded
into the public when a recording of the McResource line
advocated that full-time employees sign up for food stamps
and welfare.

The Pimple, Delvin Benet, Rudy Canoza or one of his hundreds of other sock puppets isn't interested the truth that refutes the lies he posts and gets nailed for constantly.

He may not be Art from Canada but he is The Pimple, Delvin Benet and tons of other worthless sock puppets.

It's always funny when a worthless sock puppet gets knocked off by someone else.

BS

Wal-Mart GIVES employees a turkey for thanksgiving, and they also run in
house events to collect money, stuff for associates who hit a hard spot
(house fires, major illnesses, vehicle accidents with injuries and such)

They also have programs in place to donate money to outside
organizations (MY FD gets a check every 6-12 months for 2-3,000.00 that
is given for the people at the DC who volunteer in the communities. They
also have sent MASSIVE amounts of food, clothes and household items into
the areas damaged by storms and floods.

Walmart pays insanely low wages because they can get away with it. If they could pay even less they would. Sam Walton's heirs don't care because it's all about greed for them. It's much cheaper to give out turkeys, support charities, donate food, etc. and pretend you care when you're as greedy as the Walmart family heirs are. That you can't see the truth about what Walmart truly is shows who you are, Steve:

You're an imbecile with no clues.
