Oh I read about it all the time. Complaining that the profits should be used to increase worker wages.
Plenty of talk about McDonald's profits, Walmart profits, etc. and how they are greedy hoarders.

So you agree with people being subsidized with tax payer money? Of course you dont. Note the sarcasm. So its a catch 22 in la la Republican land. You want people to make as little as possible but then complain when they need government assistance.
Please dont use your failed argument about skills etc..... Not everyone can be a doctor, lawyer etc.... On top of that those are high level positions. Hate to usay it but most Americans arent very smart. I bet you're noit smart enough to do my job.
They don't complain about corporate profits, they complain about corporate welfare. Also, not paying a living wage when they could well afford to.
I agree about the corporate welfare thing. The living wage stuff, that's the market at play there...if you got a skills set that is in demand you can demand more. Flipping burgers or pouring coffee is a skill set that can be learned very very quickly.
No one should have to pay more than what the market dictates.

Retail is the new manufacturing
I agree that the US government has taken it upon themselves to subsidize everyone into a middle class lifestyle.
And they've done it so much so that it is now a disincentive to earning more.
Earn $1 more than the income limit and you lose all benefits.
That $1 could cost a family over $600 in SNAP benefits.
Would you want to earn $1 more and lose $600 in SNAP (and other benefits) ?
We have a very punishing welfare system.
LOL.."I" want people to make as little as possible ? Really ? How do I manage that ?
When it comes to DC politics I vote neither D nor R.

While that is nice, it isn't how things work.
Geeze they aren't even flipping anymore..it's microwaved.

Ok lol, as you hold the american people hostage. Give corporate america tax breaks and loophole and incentives to make profit, lower regulations or we will go to another country. Your quote: "When are you liberals going to wake up and accept the fact that nobody owes you anything at all? end quote: I don't but obviously you and corporate america believes we owe you something? Maybe because your rich?
No, I'm not rich but I did work and earn enough during my productive years to live a comfortable retirement lifestyle. I never expected anyone to look out for me or my family except myself. You should try that mindset yourself and you too might enjoy the same golden years that I am enjoying.
