>> If they put the money the spend on stock buybacks into wages, they could give every employee like a $7 an hour raise.

Sure, if they quit investing money in new stores they could eek out a raise for employees, too. But how would that even make sense? If you don't give stockholders a return for their investment, you will not be able to raise capital when you need it.

Your lack of understanding of business is astounding.

>> Right now the tax payers are subsidizing the Walmart shareholders.

That is a totally absurd claim. Just dumb, even for you.

If government wants to buy shit for Walmart employees, that's on government, not on Walmart.
