The Walton family is the wealthiest family in the country and is worth more than $200 billion, which is more than the bottom 40 percent of Americans combined. Yet somehow, they continue to oppose the idea of paying their workers a living wage of $15 an hour. They think the taxpayers in this country should have to subsidize the needs of their low wage workers who are forced to go on food stamps, Medicaid and other forms of public assistance.This is a family that has made more than $50 billion during the pandemic – yet many of their workers reported going into work without the protective gear they needed during that same pandemic, and few have any paid leave they can use.This is a family whose eldest son has spent more than $225 million on an antique car collection, including Ferraris, Porches, Maseratis, and a 1936 Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic that won top prize at the The Peninsula Classics Best of the Best Award in Paris — yet 55 percent of Walmart’s hourly workers have reported struggling with hunger.This is a family with another heir to the Walmart fortune, Alice, who has amassed a private art collection worth an estimated $500 million, a $25 million two-floor condo on New York’s Park Avenue with 52 windows overlooking Central Park, and a $22 million 4,400-acre ranch in Texas — yet tens of thousands of Walmart workers are forced to rely on food stamps and public housing in order to survive.Now, I have never understood how one family could have so much money and feel the desperate need for even more. I would think that with all those cars and homes and cash, they might just be able to raise the wages of their employees to a living wage and still afford to get by.Because the greed above just scratches the surface of the Walmart family’s pathology.In 2005, Walmart was forced to settle a child labor law case. That same year, they paid a settlement for denying workers meal breaks.In 2016, they were found to have used sweatshop labor.In 2017, they were sued by female employees for discrimination based on gender.And here is something else you may not know:The Walmart family...

So, I just finished watching Jane Fonda Firedrill Friday and then Sunrise Movement sent me a host a "Good Jobs for All" Campaign Kickoff Party! And so I said, OK, I'll do it.Besides everyone says how fun it is to have a zoom meet so I thought how fun would it be just to get to visit with a few listeners. Even if there's just two of us. I'll bring a door prize or two. We can make a fun mocktail/cocktail? Got any favorites? My step-kids make some delicious mint mojitos. It's Thursday next week, March 4th at 6pm MST. I'd love to have you join me and let's get this Green New Deal off the ground together.This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/
