I am amazed at what people do not know about Walmart....
I truly recommend (well actually begging) that people watch the movie...
Yes it is true that corporations have a facist stranglehold on this country but, Walmart has taken it to a different level.
Please watch the movie......
And by the way, I do not mean to be insulting but, if you are unsure of what "working poor" is, you should really decline from giving an opinion.
Why do I have the nerve to type such a statement? Because when I worked for the AFL-CIO (when all unions were still under their umbrella), I have seen more Walmart and "Walmart like" hell holes that would make you cry, scream, or both.
But anyway, here is a short definition of "working poor" from Wikipedia...
"Working poor is a term used to describe individuals who maintain full-time jobs but remain in relative poverty due to low levels of pay and dependent expenses. Often, they have negative net worth and lack the ability to escape their situations. In some situations there are people who choose to reject material benefits or prefer a lifestyle that most would regard as lazy or degenerate. Those people would not fall within the category of working poor.
In contrast to the ideal portrayed in Horatio Alger novels, where determination and a strong work ethic can lift a person from poverty into middle class comfort, the "working poor" are those who work hard yet do not escape poverty."
There are A TON of articles and blogs concerning this issue. Not to mention, the massive tax cuts for the wealthy are killing this population.
