Yeah we are sure you never eat fast food, use the local car wash, get pizza delivered or a paper, get your oil changed at a Quick lube, buy anything at a convenience store or coffee shop. Nice selective memory.
Personally, when I eat fast food it's almost always at an In 'N Out Burger, which pays their employees better than other chains. Once in while I have to eat elsewhere, but we're talking once every year or two.
I don't use the local car wash
I don't have pizza delivery where I am (although I admit to picked up up pizza from a locally owned business... I also eat at other locally owned restaurants in town)
No paper delivery (although I do wish I could get it, but they don't deliver to the house where I am)
Never gone to a Quick Lube; I use a local mechanic who has a pretty good business going. I admit I did Big O tires for a few years, but stopped using them back in 2006.
Haven't gone to WalMart in YEARS; Target? Went once in the last 8 years. Don't go to Costco (although they pay decently from what I've heard) either.
Ok, I do buy some things from Kohl's. Hard to find locally-owned clothing stores. And yes, I go to BevMo and Best Buy now and again. Even hit Lowe's once every year or two. It's hard to avoid big stores altogether.
But WalMart? No - their policies have led to a climate of very low wages and very low payments to suppliers. Yes, that means their stuff is cheap; and I know a lot of people who are desperately scraping by need those low prices; but to me, WalMart has led the lowering of everyone's boats, not the raising of the boats.
And in this case - the store should just give bonuses for its workers, not ask other workers to cover the shortfall in their employees' pay.
