I don't see why you have an issue with Food Lion donating food to needy people. I grasp your point about taxes going to fund social security, but that (increased wages) isn't going to help people that are hungry right now.
And no, paying a livable wage isn't charity in any way, shape or form. It's fair, it's just, it is ethically the right thing to do, but it isn't charity. If it were charity, Food Lion would pay people $25/hour not to come to work.

You DID completely miss my point.
Yes I used Food Lion as an example, but it would not matter to me what giant entity did this.
McFly! It isn't that hard to understand.
Good tactic in economic reality= PAY LIVABLE WAGES.
Bad economic tactic which is what giant corporations love= Pay crappy wages, then, rather than pay livable wages, make "charity" look like you fucking care.
Again, you're yelling at people who are agreeing with you.
