Every American should be asking themselves these questions... Why am I paying TAXES on my wages? Then paying Sales Tax to spend my money. Then paying Income Taxes on my money they already TAXED and paying Property Taxes after I already paid Sales Tax on said the property

it's either those jobs or starvation, crime, jail

So, according to you, the employers are heroes...benefactors of Mankind. Right? We should be praising them for saving so many people.

Also, it's total horseshit. If you can stock shelves at Walmart, you can do the same at another store. Get real.

Another store that doesn't pay more, can't afford to pay minimum wage and ends up getting put out of business by the mega giants. Yes.

People WANT those jobs. They may not LOVE those jobs, but they WANT them, and according to you, would starve without them. How is this bad?

THE VALUE THEY CREATE IS BEING STOLEN. <--- This is a criminal act, which SHOULD be illegal for all the good reasons and is certainly and absolutely immoral. It is by definition "bad".

You are seemingly incapable of understanding the very simple equation of:

proceeds of sale (value of finished goods) [MINUS] cost of inputs [MINUS] value created by labor (as magnified by capital) = ZERO

or

cost of inputs [PLUS] value created by labor (as magnified by capital) = value of finished goods (proceeds from sale). THERE IS NOTHING ELSE. If it doesn't add up, SOMEBODY IS STEALING FROM SOMEBODY ELSE. And it's always the employer filling his pockets while his employees live thin, and ever thinner.

As such, I can't argue at your level and will stop responding.

Giving someone a job isn't 'stealing', Komrade. Of course employers wanna make a profit, should they work for free? As they profit, they can expand their business, and hire MORE people...those people you said would STARVE without those jobs. This is a good thing.
