I'd like to tear this bogus argument apart once and for all. This is logically flawed at it's core, and I will demonstrate why.
For starters, this entire theory hinges on the idea that by employing someone, Walmart is somehow entirely responsible for their well being. This is quite simply, ridiculous.

The fact that WalMart pays low wages and then encourages employees to apply for Medicaid and Food Stamps indicates that their labor costs are being subsidized by taxpayers. If, as public policy, had a higher minimum wage, the taxpayer wouldn't be supporting WalMart employees.
Not as ridiculous as one would want.
