re: Warren going hard after Walton family

Maybe if you are a coward that is scared of a smudge of bad pr.

Anytime a dem has to actually debate some retarded stat they have concated its game over.

The right would be much better if all the chicken little scared of narrative would shut up

Warren has way more money than any of those poor, poor Wal-Mart workers

How bout she level THAT playing field...

What the frick is wrong with you ?

so each Walmart heir Makes $8,320,000,000 per year

thats what the $4,000,000/hr x 40 hr x 52 =

Sounds like "fuzzy Math"


Washington Post article

post states:

Though Walmart is a publicly traded company, more than 50 percent of its shares are in the hands of the Walton family — 51.11 percent

Walmart’s most recent quarterly dividend was 52 cents a share, or $2.08 a year.

In other words, the Walton family earns $3,138,649,017.92 just in dividends a year, before adding in income from salaries, director’s fees and so forth. Yep, that’s more than $3.1 billion.

We have no idea how many hours a week members of the Walton family work on business, but a standard workweek is 40 hours, or 2,080 hours a year. That works out to $1.51 million an hour — or more precisely, $25,149 a minute.

so it looks like this is based on the "family" owning 50+% of shares and $0.52/share in dividends....

quite a stretch, that also means they are giving the resit of the invested public almost as much to their retirement plans....

This is from a company that generate around $500,000,000,000 in revenue each year..... and directly employs 2,200,000 people around the world

Using the same kind of math that Walmart heirs make $1,400 off of each of their employees....

if i only made my boss a net profit of $1,400 i wouldn't be imployed

Maybe they do donate a lot to causes and stuff and just don't say anything. Either way, it's their money. Their family took the risk, their family built the company, they are reaping the benefits. Not for us to take it away just because reasons

And none of those employees are now or has ever been employed by a poor person. The wealth in this country is why jobs are plentiful and why poor people everywhere want to come here. It just be's that way.
