Walmart was on the way to raising wages anyway (a by product of Doug McMillon who has made it one of his priorities), so not sure this is much of an effect of the Trump tax cuts. yeah I was going to say that they had already planned on raising the minimum wage to $11 the bonuses are new ofc McMillion is a decent dude, has tried to improve most things for non supervisor hourlies and the overall Walmart experience, he seems to be well aware that kign status isn't permanent and the company needs to attract more qualified associates and improve it's god awful reputation of being among the worst shopping experiences in America. --- Sigs are boring <cite>coolboy11 posted [p:893827328] in Walmart gi...

But yes, the booms reach higher (and more fragile) and the crashes hit lower due to bad consumerism. If perfect consumerism could be achieved then capitalism would be a stable system but that is not realistic Except that in the United States, we do not practice pure Capitalism. We have regulations and social policies that help stabilize this cyclical nature you're referring to. Who said anything about pure capitalism besides you and prodclod? As for regulations, they stabilize in the short term and destabilize in the long term.

Walmart is boosting the minimum hourly wage for its U.S. employees to $11 and dishing out bonuses of up to $1,000, crediting President Trump's tax cut for enabling the move. As a Walmart Employee, this is a fucking lie. They upped base salary to 11$ an hour last year before the election. And have been trying to find ways to cut people ever since. --- let's lubricate friction material! ~nickels, Cars & Trucks <cite>Crazyman93 posted [p:893835652] in Walmart gi...
