Does it bother you that only 6 members of the Walton walmart family have more wealth than the bottom 41.5% of america?
nah they clearly worked hard to be born like that, they deserve it
>>78256971
Nope, their family earned it.
>>78256971
No. Why would it? Good on them.
Only 6? Who's missing out? Yeah, that bothers me a little.
>>78256971
Ask yourself this:
Would the Waltons have worked just as hard if they knew half their wealth would be snatched while they were alive, and the other half snatched after they died?
>>78257016
yeah, it has to be hard work to suck momma and poppa's dicks.
>>78256971
>youre assuming the bottom 40% arent complete fuckups deserving of nothing
>>78257016
>>78257031
>>78257040
>What is corporatism?
Good Goys! all you have to do is work hard! you can make it too!
>>78256971
not in the least. Trust me- the bottom 41% of Americans don't deserve shit and would be dead in a pile of hooker bodies within a week if they ever did get some undeserved "wealth".
>>78257334
yea fuck it we should give government complete control. they will eventually make us all rich.
>>78257308
This too, though.
>>78256971
Wealth isn't a fixed pie that everyone gets different-sized slices of.
>>78256971
They have it because their family earned it.
>>78257308
most of you are a part of that 41%, if not you're very close to being a part of it
the difference between 20k a year and 80k a year is nonexistent compared to the wealth of giants like the Waltons
>>78256971
How much of that is liquid?
>>78256971
They earned it through their work and probably lot of luck (right place right time, etc)
BUT
They should also contribute to the public economical effort by paying taxes.
This is how the rich should be trated.
>>78257031
Yes, Good goy. Just work hard as a wage slave and one day you can be wealthy too!
>>78257684
you mean their grandparents earned it. current generation is pissing it away and bitching and moaning the whole time.
>>78256971
They also employ 100% more people than those 41.5% do.
They have 24 hour stores selling pretty much everything across the country. Go live in England where everything closes at 5pm and there's no store like Walmart or Target. Americans that hate Walmart have became so entitled and ungrateful.
>>78256971
It only bothers me that the wealth has been subsidized by the tax payers via food stamps. Thus the government getting involved bothers me. Not them.
It bothers me that the bottom 41.5% of America is allowed to vote.
>>78257868
this. trust fund babbies are a cancer, we need a society that can break these degenerate faggots into line and make them earn their inheritance through the continuation of their families work
>>78257141
Yeah. I know I would have, cause I'd still be rich as fuck.
>>78257914
>Go live in England where everything closes at 5pm
?
Why would you lie about something so trivial?
>>78258185
That's not a lie. The majority of shops are closed at 5.
>>78258293
Simply not true, the British equivalent of Walmart(ASDA, owned by the same people I believe) is usually 24 hours in urban centres.
>>78257410
>Implying I ever uttered the words "socialism" or "communism"
>What is Laissez Faire?
>What is economic minarchy?
Holy shit, an hero yourself.
>>78258385
You're delusional if you're going to compare ASDA, mainly a grocery store, to Walmart.
>>78257472
>Wealth isn't a fixed pie that everyone gets different-sized slices of.
Now, I'm a capitalist and all, but this whole "everyone can be wealthy if you just work hard" meme like we live in a post-scarcity world is total horseshit.
>>78258589
It's the closest British equivalent to Walmart, deal with it. Done arguing about supermarkets for one day so don't expect another reply.
>>78257410
Forgot to add
>what is corporate welfare?
>what are subsidies?
>muh hard work tho
Seriously, are you a merchant, a Canadian on proxy, or an Australian on proxy?
Seriously.
It's kinda interesting to watch the lower class defend the upper class. "They totally deserve their wealth, please keep fucking my anus!" How many decades of brainwashing does it take to create this phenomenon? Or is it simply human nature to embrace oligarchy and romanticize it as aristocracy?
>>78258778
That proves my point. England's closest thing to Walmart is a grocery store and Americans complain about Walmart. They take it for granted. A store where you can go at 3am and buy pretty much anything for cheap, yet it's soooo evil. Their minimum wage is 10/hr too and people still complain. It's easy to look at the rich people and say you have to much, but what they've provided no one else has, the fact that so many people can't see this is why they're poor. You're income is based on the value you provide to society.
>>78257602
49.5% of Americans rely on government programs and benefits. So no. Anyone here who supports themselves does not qualify.
>>78256971
So were a lot of companies and people before the great depression and what happened to most of them when the market crashed and they didnt have any gold on hand? Markets always correct themselves, and also havent you ever heard the term "there is also a bigger fish"
I worked on an 88m private yacht that they owned purely for for use by a Walton mother and daughter combo. The daughter was 22/23 at the time and literally had a nanny. A fucking nanny. They were truly awful people as well. Thank fuck they were never onboard otherwise it would have been way more unpleasant.
Wealth redistribution is important to a certain extent because it prevents the creation of dinasties.
The wealth gap between the rich and the poor is important in a balanced capitalistic society, primarily because with that surplus in capital, the rich are able to create jobs thus benefitting society as a whole while they get richer. Nothing wrong with that.
The only issues emerge when their babies and their babies' babies start to take that wealth for granted and their perceive their money as something they have deserved by just being born in the right family.
Also corporativism is bad for everyone but the 10-15 people controlling capital. Less competition, less innovation, wage control, ecc...

when this rich people that ACTUALLY OWN YOUR GOVERMENTS decide to kill of the wasteful eaters you won't be saying shit, but then again, you probably wont be alive. IT WILL BE YOUR CHIDREN AND GRAND CHILDREN DYING YOU IGNORANT FUCKS READ A BOOK
no alt right shittards have anything else to chime in with?
NO.
If not for walmart, the USA would be in exactly the same situation as Venezuela. And we would have to vote against Brexit. And watch Youtube gay propaganda.
So I think it's good.
>>78262492
suck my dick
>>78268162
are you litrally a shittard?
>>78268217
>:o)
>>78268217
dum fuk cant even come up with an arguement
Is there a reason it should bother me?
>>78269742
do you genes you wish to be carried on?
>>78257334
>>78257796
>>78262492
Assmad leftists detected. Aristocracy is the only legitimate form of government to be honest
You know sometimes, just sometimes people are poor for a reason. Not because Walmart sells cheap shit to your broke ass.
>>78270336
Does penis in vagina require a trust fund now?
>>78256971
If you're not a cuck, it bothers you.
>>78256971
Nope. The bottom 41.5% of the US are retards who spend every penny they get their hands on, then take out title loans on top of it.
Fuck poor people.
>>78256971
It bothers me that the bottom 40 fuck like rabbits and aim to be the bottom 95%.
Stop breeding.
>>78257031
Walmart pioneered cheep shit from China. So be sure to thank them for globalism.
>>78257668
Need more info. The amount of liquid we typically see in Walmarts is dependent on the quality of each Burgerstainis preferred dietary choices.
>>78256971
Not really, to be honest. Their family earned that money, therefore they deserve to have it. So long as they're paying their taxes, I don't give a shit.
>>78262492
HURR DURR WAKE UP SHEEPLE
>>78273227
what if it is discovered that they use tax havens? shouldn't they pay back taxes with interest?
>>78256971
What's bothersome isnt that they have so much wealth. The problem is that they aren't trickling it back into the economy as much as they should be.
>>78257410
No. But it will make everyone EQUALY " poor "
>>78256971
It only bugs me that I'm not part of the waltons family. Gimmie that wealth.
But you work with what you got, so who cares.
>>78256971
They earned that money fair and square. Don't complain because you're one of the 41.5% of lazy shits that don't want to work and want to have everything handed to them.
>>78256971
No, they earned that money.
Even if they had 99.9999999999% money of the whole world it would still be ok and even respectable they managed to accumulate that much wealth.
We should try to be more like them, if anything.
>>78257914
but the bottom 41.5% are the ones buying the stuff from Walmart that enables them to employ people.
>>78257796
>your parents were worthless fucks that spent every last dime they owned buying toys for themselves and left their family lineage nothing to grow off of
>their parents were extremely frugal and saved every dime they could to make sure their future generations could live comfortably
>buttfucked liberals want to steal everyone's money upon death so no one can ever provide a better life for their kids
Yep.
>>78277034
>their parents were extremely frugal and saved every dime they could to make sure their future generations could live comfortably
more like their parents exploited the labor of the common people to accumulate money which only got to them for exploiting people just because there are million poor assholes out there waiting to do the same job cheaper than the shmuck already doing it...so when you tell a person they have to work 10 hrs overtime without pay and they quit they get the desperate one who will work 20hrs overtime without pay
I bet you also support illegals waiting to do the job of a native for 1/50th of its worth
>>78256971
Yeah, I'd like it if more than 6 members of the Walton family could be rich.
