@TheTarDog @fuckyouiquit 60% of hourly employees; don't forget all the salary pugs. Even so, shareholders would never let the margins get that close; they'd simply raise them to maintain their $20B profit level... which completely negates the whole exercise.

@Renescent @fuckyouiquit Only about 60 percent of walmarts employees are full time, and those average closer to 34 hours a week paid time, the rest are 20 hours a week or less, so your number is high.

Federal minimum wage hasn’t increased in 17 years. $25 an hour is the bare minimum today to survive. This bill includes tipped workers and individuals with disabilities who regularly earn far, far less. Subminimum wage pays less than $3.50 an hour.

@misty21 @fuckyouiquit I see $19B and 2.1M (global) in 2025 per Google but yeah, (2.1Mx2080)x5 = $21.8B

@Renescent @fuckyouiquit Net Profit was 22 billion in 2025 1.6 Million Employees in USA The total cost for a $5 per hour raise for 1.6 million employees working 40 hours per week would be $320 million per week, or $16.64 billion per year New Net Profit would be 5.36 billion

@chopstix694 @fuckyouiquit Walmart - 2025 net profits - $19.4B Walmart 2025 Employee Count - 2.1M (2.1Mx2080)x5 = $21.8B A net loss of $2.4B just from payroll

@Renescent @fuckyouiquit prove this theory would love to see how your math checks out

@TheTarDog @fuckyouiquit Nah, I hate Walmart and do not shop there, but I read it somewhere, did the loose math, and it supports my very general statement. Walmart - 2025 net profits - $19.4B Walmart 2025 Employee Count - 2.1M (2.1Mx2080)x5 = $21.8B A net loss of $2.4B just from payroll

@Renescent @fuckyouiquit Be very curious to see your math on this one. Not finding any figures that come close to corroborating that, are you just blindly simping for multi billion dollar corporations? I can guarantee they aren't going to return the favor.

@piratelincoln @fuckyouiquit Walmart - 2025 net profits - $19.4B Walmart 2025 Employee Count - 2.1M (2.1Mx2080)x5 = $21.8B A net loss of $2.4B just from payroll Back of the envelope sure, but it supports my statement.

@Renescent @fuckyouiquit You didn't even bother with the facts, did you snowflake? You're just going off of your delicate little feelings. If they spent an extra $12B on wages (the amount of increase caused by a $5/hr across the board raise), they still would have cleared $10B in PROFIT last FY.

@RedWaveCrewHP 430

Divide 200 by half and add 30. What's the answer?

@HawkEmDownChris @19fredlynn is my childhood goat.

Ken Griffey Jr. isn't available, who's your favorite MLB center fielder of all time?

@Matt_Pinner Guess I'm tea-baggin' a corpse.

People who sleep naked do ya'll ever think about emergencies? What if someone breaks in?

@Eman_8282 Gas, grass, or ass... no one rides for free.

@VinnysCorner1 Amani 'It's not a' Toomah!

Without saying Lawrence Taylor, Eli Manning, Phil Simms, Jaxson Dart, or Michael Strahan name a New York Football Giant…

@luxemiaa $22/hr. is 35.5% of the household income; so the sum of the contribution shouldn't exceed 35.5%. Roommates are 50/50 and marriage is combined income; situationships fall in between.

I make 22$ an hour and my partner makes 40$ an hour. We’re both full time. He wants me to move in with him. He wants me to pay for all the groceries and do all the cooking, but also wants me to pay him $400 a month to live in the house he owns. (He’s still paying it off) He keeps saying the money is going to go to his bank account to save for when we “buy a house together” AITA, Or does this feel a bit unfair?

@CAgovernor Two questions to answer if you want to be taken seriously as the DNC nomination: 1. Where'd the $24B go for the homeless? 2. Where'd the $125B+ go for the train?

California's economy outperformed every state in the country in 2025: GDP of $4.25 TRILLION (up 5% from the year prior). Adding more to our economy than Texas, Florida, and New York. 16 years of straight growth. The "exodus" narrative is nowhere to be seen.

@JoJoFromJerz Y'all do know that all US males must register for the selective service right? This just saves a trip to the post office. Not registering doesn't exclude your sons from being conscripted or drafted.

This isn’t getting nearly enough attention. As the mom of a nearly 17 year old young man, this is something I think about daily.

@oelma__ Why not? If women can have preferences, why shouldn't men?

Can you reject a good woman just cuz they got 3 kids with different fathers??

@Tekeee Personally, I'd get a roommate, 2nd gig, and learn added skills to increase my value.

Explain to me how im supposed to pay; $1,650 rent $270 power $100 water $260 internet $120 car insurance EVERY MONTH while making less than $20 an hour???

@DefiantLs Joe's a liar.

Joe Scarborough says Mika doesn’t know where her "original birth certificate" is, and the SAVE America Act would ‘"get her kicked off the voter rolls."

@mcuban Hi Mark - Also consider that a lot of insurance companies are publicly traded and that pricing skyrocketed due to no (reasonable) malpractice caps.

I don’t think people realize how much healthcare costs are driving big companies to fire and not hire. It costs them $30k per family, per year for premiums and care. Most of that goes to the massive, vertically integrated insurance companies that send weekly bills that no one reviews in details. And it doesn’t include the company overhead to deal with it all. It’s usually the 2nd largest expense after payroll. Which is insane It’s far easier to blame AI than it is to blame Healthcare costs. Want to increase jobs, wages and improve affordability for every American ? Break up the biggest insurance companies. Make divest non insurance companies. They don’t need thousands of subsidiaries. That’s how they game and abuse the system and increase costs for all of us. Call your senator and tell them to support the BreakUp Big Medicine Bill by @HawleyMO and @SenWarren.

@1ssve It's on my phone now, tough titties... reconsider what you text.
