How is this Walmart's fault? If the kids aren't getting paid, why do it? if they really wanna do work for free, that's their dumb ass choice.

hate to tell you this but he's right if they're working for free they're idiots. It's kinda fucked up but I'm sure it looks good on a resume to "volenteer" in such a way anyhow but you can't blame them for taking advantage.. it's not like they're FORCED to do it as SALVES they CHOOSE to work for no pay.

[My Letter to Wal-Mart]

You represent a industry of sweatshop's and "free trade". I know this letter will have little effect on your monolith of a industry besides making your adverts try harder.

I want you to know this is one non-sheep global citizen that wont be co-opted by your slick advertising campaigns. I am one of many that has boycotted your evil store and tenaciously spreads the word whenever your brand comes up in a conversation.

I hope the impoversihed people you exploit to make/sell/buy your goods skullfuck your corporation via theft, disobedience and a societal awakening of the evil that is your corporation and what you represent.

Please if you have a concience dismantle the monster you have created.

Thankyou.

-----------------------------------------

To the inane commentors, people are being exploited. You can make a whole lot of rosy predictions but they are being exploited, by a company with a lengthy history of exploiting people for money.

You are a dumb fucking peice of shit for arguing for Wal-Mart and in turn are arguing for social darwinism.

This is the link to write wal-mart a letter.

There is a scripted one or you can go the route of myself and just rip on them.

"Please if you have a concience"

Only they don't. Sort of like ShoutWire's current staff.

Good morning. This is the Alex Jones awareness morning. I just made it up so I have an excuse to spam you with propaganda:

Don't mind me. I'm just a TurboFag.

its the "how is this walmarts fault" bit that i disagree with, not the part about their intelligence.
youre also assuming there werent false promises made, or expectations of income that arent delivered or what the circumstances are. hell we dont even know if its true. but if it is, regardless of the situation (except all profits going to something else ie charity, and not linked to anyone closely related to any form of corporate body associated with walmart) it IS walmarts fault, and they ARE cunts. theyre knowingly taking profit and not paying out. i dont care how stupid the people are, it is no different to nigerian scammers, they should be fucked up. people who have been scammed may at times deserve it. doesnt change the fact that the fault rests with the scammer.
