Janikka Perry never made it home from her shift at the bakery of a supercenter in Arkansas. She was one of many Walmart workers who have been pressured to work through illness or pain, sometimes with devastating consequences.
The people that profit off killing workers like Jannikka didn’t know her name when she was making them money, and won’t care to know her name after having killed her.
This “society” is nothing more than a playground for sociopaths. Our very lives are in service to those sociopaths that don’t consider us human solely because we lack the significant net worth they hoard and gamble without any consideration beyond “what’s in it for me?”
Remember that the next time you recoil at a homeless victim of this system. That is one of us that our society beat into that position for failing to produce for our owners. Most of the peasants look at them the way our owner class looks at us.
The homeless aren’t our enemy, the government that has been corrupted to serve the owners isn’t our enemy, our neighbors aren’t our enemy. Wall Street and the global market capitalist owner class are our civilization’s and planet’s common enemy, whether we choose to actually fight them or continue to submit to and profit them like good little doggies. Everything else is a distraction, and likely a distraction of their design meant to keep us divided punching sideways and downward instead of looking up.
A-fucking-men, I couldn’t have said this any better myself. It’s always been the ultra-rich causing problems for the Common Man, not the poor or public servants. The problem then, one that may be solvable by us, is figuring out how to shake-awake the brainwashed from their IV drip of late-stage Capitalism. More people need to congregate behind global wealth management for anything to truly be changed.
Foodservice, Food Processing, and Retail NEED mandatory paid sick leave. The fact that they don’t, with the inevitable public health consequence, is gross to say the least. Aside from that note, any corp with as much power as Walmart needs to be broken up and/or unionized, pronto.

Walmart is evil. They single-handedly caused the deportation of millions of jobs. Their workers are subsidized by the American taxpayer, because even if Walmart allows you to work full time, you are still in poverty.
Our whole economy here in Arkansas is tied to this organization, so you can’t really get a fair trial
I think I may start quoting this when people ask why I don’t like Walmart. I think the article helped convey how much sway the company has over the state. It’s scary. Glad I no longer live there.
