Dox of CEO of Walmart here. Family members, political
"It has come to the attention of
the anonymous collective that the business practices of the Walmart
corporation are detrimental to democracy and economic prosperity world
wide. Despite recording massive profits greater than the G.D.P. of more
than one hundred small countries, the walmart corporation claims to be
unable to pay its workers a living wage. The starting pay for the
average full-time walmart employee is only eight seventy-five an hour.
To put this in perspective, a full-time walmart employee makes
eighteen-thousand two-hundred dollars a year BEFORE taxes, well the U.S.
department of health and human services says to support a family of one
spouse and one child, a person needs nineteen-thousand five-hundred and
thirty dollars of AFTER tax income. This means that walmart workers
supporting a family, which is the majority of walmart workers, live
below the poverty line. This is why nearly eighty percent of all walmart
workers require government assistance in the form of food stamps,
costing the american tax payer more than two and a half billion dollars a
year. On top of this, the walmart corporation has deliberately and
meliciously attempted to corrupt American democracy by lobbying in
washington d.c. and various state legislatures to prevent increases in
the minimum wage, so that they can avoid paying there workers a living
wage. This is also why walmart workers all over the country have begun
striking for a fair and living wage for all full-time workers. In the
spirit of solidarity with our fellow activists and the working poor,
anonymous is prepared to use the full might of the collective in defense
of the working class, until walmart is willing to give its workers fair
pay for fair work. We demand that the Walmart corporation change its
labor practices, so that all full time workers get minimum pay of eleven
dollars an hour and basic health benefits.
Walmart,
We are anonymous.
We are legion.
We do not forgive.
we do not forget.
expect us."
I don't know if this will work, but I want it too. It's not just Walmart. It's fast food chains and other businesses that just won't pay a living wage. When gas is over $3.50 a gallon and the same for milk, never mind energy bills and utilities. It doesn't add up when minimum wage is so low, however, the price of food has skyrocketed.
Gas and food? don't look for either of those things to be counted when it comes to inflation, we have no idea what the real inflation rate is. So how in the world can you pay these horrible poverty wages to people and think they can survive? Go ahead and pitch a fit about food stamps and other assistance these "moochers" collect. Just trot those CEO's out on the cover of Forbes, because these "job creators" are the all American dream. Right.

If this is what it's going to take to get our country back to any kind of humane way of life for working people, I'm for it. So look out Walmart, Anonymous is coming for you.
