WTF are you talking about? That was one of the most asinine things I have read. You double step your points. In actuality retail is very competitive as there really aren’t that many jobs anymore since everything is going the way of online ordering.
Also most people working these jobs are hard workers trying to make end’s meat. The problem is you have companies like Wal-Mart making billions in profit each year and treat their workers like dirt. They don’t pay a livable wage or offer good health benefits. This is causing tax payers to foot the bill for welfare, Medicaid, and food stamps. Why should I have to pay for this? It is the companies responsibility to the workers to offer a livable wage; especially when they have insane profits and CEOs making insane money. I bet the cashier works harder than the CEOs.
Luckily, we have companies like Costco and aldi offering employees better wages and benefits that way the taxpayers aren’t strained to help out the “working poor.”
