The message of the real reason behind Walmart strikes is breaking through to capture the attention of mainstream press and the general public! There is something about this Walmart strike that resonates with people.... That's bad news for the corporate schmucks that are trying to hold the line and keep this issue out of the public eye..

See this link for 1 minute short clip video of CNN ANCHOR CONFRONTING WALMART SPOKESMAN ON LOW WAGES: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/11/20/carol-costello-cnn-walmart_n_2167213.html?utm_hp_ref=business

Here's the entire interview which has even more aggressive questioning of Walmart VP on CNN: http://thinkprogress.org/economy/2012/11/20/1221081/cnn-confronts-wal-mart-spokesperson-over-retailers-low-salaries-poor-working-conditions/?mobile=wt

The great musician Rodriguez once asked "how many times can you plant flowers in this cartoon world?" Some days I feel that frustration. But you know what? I think we're going to win this.

Eating the organic stuff is more expensive. But I honestly dont agree that low wages mean you have to eat unhealthy. It matters if its a priority.

Many people in this country simply dont like healthy food. Water is cheaper than cola. Everyone knows McDonalds is disgusting, but the lines are always packed. Grocery stores have entire isles of chips and pop. Its incredible.

But I do like my beer, so we are all guilty in one way or another :)

I like McDonald's coffee, lolol. You make a point, hchc, as usual, but healthy foods are more expensive. Fresh fruit, fresh vegetables and fresh meat and fish cost a lot more than the crap that is prepared already. Just sayin'. If you have a family to feed on $15/hour you aren't eating many fresh blueberries.

[-] 4 points by Builder (4202) 11 years ago

There's a lethargy upon the populace. It's happening with our youth in Australia.

Always seeking the easiest "out" with anything, including food prep or consumption. No time to actually plan a menu for the week.

Having lived in very isolated situations, where you can only get to a food store once a month, I know the economics of eating, if not eating healthier.

I still like corned beef, which I know is not particularly healthy, but if I combine it with seeded mustard, or mustard pickles, it's okay to eat, and very tasty.

I can get three solid meals out of 200 grams (maybe half a pound) of lean beef mince. It's all about knowing what to do with it.

Mass-marketing and the general malaise/lethargy mentioned above is a lot to do with the obesity factor. Sugared drinks being the main culprit. I simply never do soda, unless to mix with spirit drinks, and that's a rare treat for me these days.

[-] -1 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 11 years ago

Lethargy? Ummm - yeah - I suppose - or depression? Depression can be very lethargic.

Anyway it also has to do with - is your time - your time? Or is your time dictated by what is left over from putting in your time for someone else?

Me when I was working - especially the last twelve years while becoming increasingly sick - I got home and I fell over - then I got up and went to work again. Ready to heat meals were a blessing in my eyes at the time - pop em in the oven set the timer and take a nap - get up and eat when the timer goes off and then go to bed.

Maybe I was at fault ( no maybes? ) or it could also be society in which I live. No standards of health placed on food that is put out for sale. No sane standards put on how many hours an individual can be made to work - coupled by no sane standard of a living wage that then forces individuals to work themselves to death - just to sleep under some sort of roof.

[-] 3 points by Builder (4202) 11 years ago

Lethargy; 1 A state of sluggishness, inactivity, and apathy.

  1. A state of unconsciousness resembling deep sleep. 3. The state or quality of dullness, prolonged sleepiness, sluggishness, or serious drowsiness. Compare "stupor" 4. a lowered level of consciousness, marked by listlessness, drowsiness, and apathy.
  2. a condition of indifference.

Importantly, the condition of lethargy can be directly influenced by what we consume. Notably, aspartame, found in "sugar-free" products, like chewing gum, soft drinks, burger buns. Also, flourine/flouride added to drinking water (on the premise of preventing tooth decay) is known to limit creativity, and promote lethargy.

[-] 2 points by therising (6643) 11 years ago

This is called an ad hominem. It's a logical fallacy where you attack a person instead of her argument. Look it up :) Usually people use ad hominems because they don't have any good reasons for their position.

PS - Your ad hominem appears more desperate than most. Are you a member of the Walton family that has as much wealth as the poorest 40% of American citizens combined? If so, how do you reconcile holding that much wealth while at the same time paying the majority of your workers less than a living wage? Also, how do you explain that 80% of your workforce is on some kind of public assistance so they can feed their families and have health care? (Remember, your managers keep public assistance fliers well stocked in the break rooms). How do you sleep at night knowing you're forcing average American taxpayers to pay your employees health costs and provide them with assistance for food and housing? Look up "living wage" sometime.

What will you and the rest of the Walton family chat about over Thanksgiving while many around the country are talking about how unfair your company is to its workers?

Actually the five Walmart family members that have as much money as the poorest 40% of all Americans combined really pretty much inherited their wealth.

[-] 3 points by therising (6643) 11 years ago

You missed the point. You said, "So what if someone inherits a fortune." I don't much care about "someone" inheriting a fortune either. What I'm talking about is the fact that the wealth of America is concentrated in the hands of a very few and the gap is widening. And while so many of those folks preach about pulling yourself up by your bootstraps, the fact is that 90% of those in the top 1% INHERITED their wealth. 90% dude. That's not just "someone". That's just about all of them. Do you think it's healthy that 5 members of the Walton family have as much money as the poorest 40% of the American public combined? 5 people have as much as 120,000,000 people. !!!!!!

[-] 3 points by VQkag2 (16478) 11 years ago

No need to condemn the wealthy. If a wealthy person wills his money to someone who hasn't earned it then it shouldbetaxed like all income is taxed.

I can't say I'm being condemned because I am taxed! And neither are the wealthy (sitting on the couch not earning it themselves!) being condemned. Just taxed.

Why wouldexpend energy advocating for the wealthy? You ain't wealthy. You think someone is gonna leave you a fortune? LMFAO.

You're dreaming. Stop betraying your class.

The wealthy have armies of lobbyists (to rig the laws), accountants (to evade their fair share of tax), & lawyers (to avoid punishment).They are well taken care of.

[-] -2 points by mapleLaneser (-120) 11 years ago

Sorry but that is where I have a different view on it. Inheritance is a "gift" from one person to another. And depending on the size of the gift it can also trickle down to other siblings, etc as well. Why put a higher tax on that and what do you think Uncle Sam is going to do with it??? More than likely the Gov is going to misuse the money like they do with everything else.

[-] 2 points by VQkag2 (16478) 11 years ago

Trickle down is a farce. Therich never trickle anything down. Money naturally flows up! The people with little money always spend it all. The wealthy (driven by greed) are always looking to suck up the money ofthe lower income class.

Unearned income should be taxed at a higher rate. More workers earned income should be exempt from tax!

And the revenue increase from taxing the wealthy inherited wealth WILL go to cutting workers income tax.

Hows that? Ya with me?

[-] -3 points by mapleLaneser (-120) 11 years ago

I still somewhat disagree and think that "inherited money" should not be taxed higher that regular tax because the majority of it goes back into the economy anyways. I do agree with you on one thing and that is a person that grew up rather poor and comes into money, they tend to spend it (or get rid of it faster) than someone that has money

Taxing interpersonal exchange is immoral. Such as, taxing you for giving your kids money. Taxing business transactions such as payroll and purchases, investment gains, ect, is justifiable.

Should we begin taxing allowances given to kids for doing house chores?

How about when your give you kid a car as a graduation present, is that moral?

The only reason you feel the inheritance tax is justified is your discriminatory attitude toward a certain class. I of all people have no sympathy for the wealthy but the morality of my actions and my approach has nothing to do with the other person(s) in a scenario, it has to do with the kind of person I am. Tax the rich for the debt they ran up, sure, but taxing as a form of aggression or discrimination has no moral justification.

Yeah I didn't say that. All wealthy sit on their money. That is why all unearned income (inherited, interest, cap gains, rental, passive, royalties) MUST be taxed at a higher rate than earned income.

We should encourage work and discourage idleness.

We should also create a luxury tax on expensive purchases, and a small tax on all fin transactions.

The increased revenue should go towards reducing income tax for workers.

Taxing the poor is immoral. Taxing the wealthy inheritance is REQUIRED, in order to address the unhealthy concentration of wealth.

I agree taxing as a form of aggression is wrong. That is why I do not propose or support that. You don't speak for me! Your suggestion regarding my motivations are absolutely wrong and designed to malign my correct position in support of working class. Weak and dishonest is how I would describe that personal attack.

The ridiculous false comparison to allowance & gifts is just a weak attempt at obfuscation. An unrelated distraction. Smart peoplewill see through that non sense.
