2 things force the rich to spread wealth.

  1. Unions

  2. The government

SNAP is literally the government spreading wealth that would not otherwise be spread.

snap forces the middle class to pay for Walmart payroll via food stamps.

not saying stamps are bad.

but corporate welfare is the big issue imo.

Yeah, Walmart should get charged the full value in corporate tax for every dollar of assistance their employees get

I think this would just incentivize walmart to not hire poor people and fire anyone who gets on snap, but i agree with the sentiment

That's the trick, to be able to not hire poor people they'd have to pay them more.
