EP. 29 - Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Prices Nestorious Public Radio

    • Umorismo: interviste

Guest co-host Sal Rodriguez joins Nestor Rodriguez and Rich Corbin to discuss the Wal-Mart doc, black friday mayhem and the high cost of mass consumerism in America. Did you know that local governments subsidize the building of Wal-Mart’s across America while they run small independent retailers out of business? Did you also know that while these huge superstores employ millions of workers that the average annual hourly waged employee makes less than $15k? So guess what that means? Yup! All of these employees qualify for welfare! Yipee! To summarize our tax dollars go to offset the cost of Wal-Mart’s being built AND to offset low wage Wal-Mart employee’s healthcare costs! Win win for Wal-Mart -suck, slurp, vamoosh for our tax dollars! Hip hip hooray! Can we get an Amen? Listen in to sound bytes of black friday mobs and lest we forget RIP Nelson Mandela! Oh and get schooled on Kraftwerk, Big Pun and Afrika Bambaataa.
