To whom it may concern;
Regarding your commitment to reduce hunger in America: I would never question the motives or level of sincerity behind such a noble goal. But I do have a modest suggestion: If you REALLY want to make a meaningful impact on the problem, why not begin by paying your 2 million+ employees a GOD-DAMNED LIVING WAGE?

(32,024 posts)Dear Liberal:
The reason why Wal-Mart does not pay a living wage is because we exist to instill a work ethic in our workers. Sometimes, a worker needs to suffer to be motivate to reach greater heights. Therefore, our mission is met by privatizing the profits while socializing the costs! You think ghetto kids, recovering druggies, former welfare bums, former homeless folk, etc. are FINALLY getting off the dole by working at Wal-Mart? Well guess what? YOU'RE PAYING FOR THEM STILL! HAHAHAHAHAHA! Golden showers for workers, golden parachutes for the Walton Family and CEOs!!!!
