The Invisible Hand of the Market Has You By The Balls

RE: The Invisible Hand of the Market Has You By The Balls
So Walmart takes a small (emphasis on the 'small') step in the right direction...

http://www.bbc.com/news/business-31540472

Quote:Walmart said that it would raise salaries for 40% of its staff to at least $9 per hour - $1.75 above the US minimum wage.

That hourly floor would be raised to at least $10 per hour by 1 February 2016.


[Wheee...don't spend it all in one place guys!]

and those motherfucking capitalist pigs on Wall Street react with predictable horror.

Quote:Shares in Walmart fell 2.8% in early trading on news of the employee programme.
