federal minimum wage to $10.10 per hour, then adjust it after that for
inflation.

"At Costco, we know that paying employees good wages makes good sense

of minimizing wages, we know it's a lot more profitable in the long
term to minimize employee turnover and maximize employee productivity,
commitment and loyalty. We support efforts to increase the federal
minimum wage."

Costco has a reputation for paying its employees above market rate,
with the typical worker earning around $45,000 in 2011, according to
Fortune. Walmart-owned Sam's Club, in contrast, pays its sales
associates an average of $17,486 per year, according to salary
information website Glassdoor.com.

Costco also provides health insurance to a significantly larger
percentage of its workers than does Walmart, the Harvard Business
Review reported in 2006."

...

Consequently, Costco employees don't cost the taxpayers additional
money through supplimental needs like food stamps and health care
delivered through emergency rooms, like so many Walmart employees.

I have both family and friends who work at Costco and they say the
company is both fair and reasonable and expects employees to do their
best, which shows up in how the stores are run and how customers are
treated. This is how American business should be run. Another NW
founded company, Nordstom, works the same way. A fair wage for a good
day's work. They stand with their employees.

Here's Costco. Show me an average typical worker getting $45000/yr:

Listen you stupid jerk, I didn't come up with those figures, Fortune
Magazine did. What the **** is wrong with your brain? Are you on old
folks medication?

Here's the quote "Costco has a reputation for paying its employees
above market rate, with the typical worker earning around $45,000 in
2011, according to Fortune."

How in the hell have you fit that thick skull of yours so far up your
ass?

Listen you ......, you posted the figures, therefore they're yours...and they're more of your
bull****.


Salmonbait
--

Actually, the figures were from Fortune magazine. But your reputation
here for getting off on Wal-Mart taking advantage of its employees is
well-known. Had you not been in the Army, you would have been a Wal-Mart
employee.


Actually, the figures were (supposedly) from two different sources. Try reading for content.



Go camp out at wal-mart, ****head. Maybe you'll be able to sweet talk
the unpackers there into slipping you a few hundred rounds.

This is why you need more national policies on everything from gun regulations to labour issues.


You might also notice that those progressive states are the ones going
bankrupt.


Right. You mean the ones who contribute the most to the national
coffers in order that the red states might not be cashless?


I hear that a lot but do they take into account the federal subsidy
from the state tax income deduction? How about where the bulk of the
federal contracts go?

OTOH I live in a "donor state", with a balanced budget and no income
tax to deduct.


We don't have a state income tax but we do get a break on our federal
taxes based on the high sales tax we pay.

knock off the racial narrow minded crap, and the vulgar, nasty lies
about people and their family members. After your actions that last few
weeks you have a lot of balls coming here telling others how to act.


Balls aren't necessary, just a level of unawareness that Snotty finds
