Why is this important?
Walmart,Best Buy, and Target are all major retailers that pay a poverty level wage. Consequently, we the American taxpayer, are required to subsidize the workers of these highly profitable corporations with food stamps,unemployment benefits, and health care such as Medicaid. It's time to end the entitlement subsidies to these corporations by having them pay a living wage. It's time to raise the minimum wage to at least $10/hr.
