Continued discussion on the fact that we, the tax payers, are enriching the owners of Wal-Mart and other corporations by paying for health care and food stamps of their underpaid employees. When will this robbery of us, the middle class, end? Why aren’t underpaid Wal-Mart employees going on strike?

Posted on | December 30, 2014 | 1 Comment

Recently, I posted an article which disclosed that we, American tax payers,  putting billions of dollars in the pockets of Waltons, owners of Wal-Mart, by paying through different social aid federal programs billions of dollars for food stamps, low income housing, health insurance and other social needs of their underpaid employees.

Many responded to this article. The questions rose, how do you stop it?

Obama talked about the redistribution of wealth. We surely have this redistribution, it comes from our pockets into the pockets of multi-billionaires like Waltons.

For a while I was wondering, why there are no strikes? Why aren’t people striking for higher wages? Years ago people used to go on strikes and fought for their wages? What happened? If Wal-Mart employees are so underpaid, that they have to be on federal programs, why aren’t they striking? And aren’t we making things worse by keeping people on federal programs, by taking from them any incentive to strike and fight for higher wages?

One reason, for what is happening, I believe, is in the fact that the union bosses are as corrupt and on the take, as our members of Congress and Presidents.

Last election I chose to run as an independent candidate. During previous elections unions did not ask me to appear before their recommendation committees while I ran as a Republican. They asked me this time, when I ran as an independent. At the meeting they asked me, what I thought about the immigration reform. I responded that it is an amnesty and it lowers the wages of American workers. One person told me that he is for it  that he will welcome everyone because we will have a multi-cultured society and everyone will be happy. I could not believe how stupid this sounded. I responded to this union boss that you can’t open the borders and let everyone in, it will simply bankrupt the nation, we can’t feed and shelter all the poor from all over the world.

As I left the meeting, I realized that all of these union bosses are simply on the take. They clearly could not care less about the interests of their members, about the falling wages of their members.  So, corruption of union bosses is one of the contributing factors, why there are no strikes, why people are not fighting for higher wages, why thousands of Wal-Mart employees are stuck with low wages, while Waltons are making billions.

Some of the people responding to the prior article, were saying that the way to solve the problem of underpaid Wal-Mart employees who are partially paid by us, their neighbors, hard working middle class Americans, is by increasing minimum wage. Others were against it.

My concern is two-fold. One, I believe that the wages should be set by the free market, they should not be arbitrary. Further, even if you increase the minimum wage, people will still sit on all the federal aid programs, as their salaries even with higher minimum wage, will be still low  and will still qualify them for the programs, aka for taking from us, the tax-payers, from you and me.

I, also, believe that our oligarchy, our ruling class, which keeps on the take our political class, set the system in such a way, as to take incentive from people to rise and strike and fight for their wages. The system of federal programs keeps people quiet, not striking, not fighting their employers, like Waltons, for higher wages.

Also, corrupt presidents, such as Obama, do the bidding of the ruling billionaires by giving amnesty to millions, opening the borders, which gives the ruling class millions of cheap workers, which in turn keeps down wages of Americans. Sadly, Republican leadership is as corrupt as the Democrats and they are not fighting for Americans either. So far, very few Republicans fought Obama-amnesty. The most vocal fighters against amnesty were Senators Jeff Sessions and Mike Lee. I hope that you will encourage them to run for President.

What else can be done?

We are going to square one, we have to replace all of the corrupt politicians: president, corrupt congressional leadership, corrupt union bosses. In order to do so, we need to clean our elections, we have to go back to paper and pencil elections at the precincts, as with electronic voting and electronic ballot counting scanners there is a lot of rigging and we can see the results.

Another way to solve the Wal-Mart low wage problem, as well as the problem of other similar corporations, is by going back to sanity, meaning rolling back the system where we, the middle class taxpayers are partially paying wages of these employees through the social programs, we should be  encouraging these employees to go on strikes, fight for their wages, so all of the social needs of these employees would go out of the pockets of multi-billionaires, who employ them, like Waltons. Please, see below an article, which shows that one family, Waltons, owners of Wal-Mart, have the same amount of wealth as 42% of American citizens.

    Ask them how much they give to support Al Sharpton, in his race baiting, anti-cop tirades. Instead of helping out their employees…
