🇺🇸 Walmart is a Welfare Company--subsidized by the US government

"Walmart captures 24% of all SNAP shopper spending, according to Numerator’s 2025 SNAP Evolution report—triple Kroger’s share and far ahead of Costco, Amazon and Sam’s Club."

@SnowyCA @GhostOnTheHalfShell i wonder what the percentage is when you add people who work full time for wal-mart and are also eligible for snap. the subsidy goes both ways.

it isn't bad that we have employers of last resort, but that we allow all profits to be captured while making the public subsidize their payroll.

" the subsidy goes both ways. "
I was thinking the same.

It's truly unacceptable these corporations are using taxpayer's money to reap profits while underpaying employees.
