The #Walton model sells #cheapness

Low wages + scale = billions.

Kids live private, elite lives.

Workers absorb instability.

Critique gets framed as “anti-business.”

#Boycott #Walmart ( I have for many years)

Different aesthetics. Same rule:

#Private #safety for #elites

.

#Public #risk for #everyone else.

Why people defend this:

If success erases harm, no one has to feel complicit.

The counter-example matters: #Prince

He refused ownership, limited access, accepted punishment — and kept autonomy.

If kids are visible early → extraction is happening.

If kids are hidden → power is being preserved.

That’s the tell.

Rich families don’t usually sacrifice their children.

They sacrifice visibility, labor, belief, or bodies — and call it opportunity.
