A TikTok user named @aarchor is gaining a lot of attention for his critique of capitalism, specifically focusing on the relationship between Walmart and its employees, Daily Dot reports. The video has already pulled in nearly 467,000 views and triggered a massive debate in the comments section with over 667 responses.
The core of the argument revolves around the Walton family and the sheer size of their retail empire. Archer points to the massive wealth held by the owners of Walmart and contrasts it with the reality that some of their employees earn low enough wages to qualify for government food assistance. He suggests that this dynamic creates a cycle where the American taxpayer is essentially subsidizing the company by providing the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, to workers who aren’t being paid enough to survive on their own.
