Wonder of wonders. Howsabout they only pay the wages of the workers they employ? Why is it their responsibility to foot the bill for your welfare state? Ever heard the phrase "please consider this as part of your total compensation"? Yeah, add welfare to the list - because Walmart would.
Walmart already foots the bill for your welfare state. What I am proposing is a less complicated, more efficient and more fair state. I propose this state because I have come to realize that as a society it is simply evil to make it illegal for the least productive, least desirable workers to sell their labor at market wages. I propose this state because I realize that our current gains in productivity and future gains in productivity will mean most people will not have to work. I propose this state because I don't want to see a future state in which the government tells my children how much to spend on food, how much to spend on housing, how much to spend on utilities, how much to spend on communication etc. I want my children to enjoy the freedom I enjoy and further enjoy the ability not to have to work if they do not want too because of productions gains made by society as a whole.
