Walmart particularly pays its workers poorly to keep prices low for the consumer It's a good thing.

They steal not the product for the tables but the fortitude of the very folk designed to protect the interests of the proletariat.
Creating guidelines slanted towards the landed gentry and profits rather than quality for general consumption.

I don't think the boner operating the Zebra getting paid more makes my groceries any higher in quality.

Im not talkin aboot anything the zebra can do. The waltons manipulate your team captains with "extra points" so that certain criteria do or dont need to be met.

I know you know what i mean. I also appreciate your penchant for a barney.
Go Team Zebra!

Walmart pays their employees so little, people end up paying more for their groceries without even realizing it. Via tax's, because Walmart like some other companies are some of the largest benefactors of government subsidized via a lot of workers being on snap/welfare benefits.

I don't think that article supports its thesis. Malarkey is a great word though.

When I'm looking at plastic surgery boards on Reddit, people are like which "facial procedure should I get," and I think about that scene as I scroll by a lot. Laughs in going to hell.
