We all know how much the leftist love to trash successful companies like Wal-Mart. Of course, the obvious question is WHY?? These companies provide the very things that these people claim they support!
Walmart proves capitalism is better than socialism
A new report from Walmart documents its success in providing hundreds of thousands of Americans with great opportunities. It proves that capitalism is a moral force for good.
The statistics in Walmart’s Environmental, Social, and Governance Report, supported by third-party audits, tell the tale.The average salary of a Walmart store owner is $175,000. And 75% of store managers started out at Walmart as hourly workers. Offering less-educated workers a chance at high-earning opportunities is the American dream defined.
About 44% of Walmart employees, and 33% of management, are people of color. I thought Democrats wanted more opportunity for minority Americans? Why do they hate Walmart so much?
About 55% of Walmart employees, and 43% of management, are women. “Walmart academy” offers on-the-job training so that employees are equipped with the skills to retain and gain work in the 21st century.
The report also notes that the average hourly wage of a full-time field associate is now $14.26, or $19.31 when total compensation benefits are figured in. That full compensation reflects Walmart’s offering of “health benefits starting at around $26 per pay period for all full and part-time associates who have worked an average of 30 hours per week over the past 12 mont
What does that have to do with socialism?
While Democrats love to present Walmart as the apex of capitalist immorality, the company actually stands in stark proof of the opposite. Conservatives must own the moral argument here.
It’s not just that Walmart provides economic opportunity, it’s that Walmart provides that opportunity while also providing a critical service to broader society — namely, the provision of a wide range of goods at low prices. Walmart is able to provide these things thanks to an economy made stronger by by capitalist reform.
This raises a question: Why do Democrats want to break what’s working?
Why do they want to tax or break up companies that are providing jobs and happiness to so many? Why do they pretend to know how to spend other people’s money better than the people who earned it?
Why do they seek minimum wage laws that price out lower-skilled and younger workers before they can even get a step into the job market? Incidentally, do Democrats ever notice how these laws incentivize accelerated automation?
As I say, conservatives must own this message. Capitalism, lawfully managed, is humanity’s greatest experiment in economic morality. Socialism is a joke of varying but always sad degrees.
<hr />
These are the things – those high-lighted – that these people claim they want for the American worker should receive and yet, they bash and try to close down the very companies that provide them.
As I have often stated before, these people don’t give a darn about the people — it only their socialist agenda that is important to them!

Damn, Rambler, you’ll believe any piece of trash without investigating the underlying figures. You must be a trumpturd!
Since, I guess, you “investigated the underlying figures”, suppose you tell me where the article is wrong.

Rambler, you will never get a meaningful conversation out of Desertfox or his sock puppet…He just throws rocks and calls people names…

Wrong Mr. Zero.
Rambler, from your post: . . . full-time field associate is now $14.26, or $19.31 when total compensation benefits are figured in . . .
What percentage of Walmart associates are full time; any idea?
Their figures of $14.26 to 19.31 is total compensation. That means the employee takes home maybe 66% of that or less. It’s like the con men of yesteryear that salted the mines and you’re the sucker buying the shaft.

A tip of the hat there, DF ……………… you did.at least try to post a lucid factual post.
I admit, I don’t know the percentage of full-time to part-time employment that the figures are based on. But, I would point out that if the minimum wage were mandated to be the $15/hr that you people push for could the result not be same — rather than employ majority of full-time employees companies would rather have a majority of part=time employees?
Next, your info concerning the net (take home) is correct —– but the numbers would be same if the minimum wage of $15/hr wouldn’t they?
So, rather than your post being explanatory wouldn’t it be more of a distraction?
