If full time Walmart employees need government assistance programs to afford food and pay their rent, is it not Walmart who is leaning on government assistance?

  • What you’re describing is a permanent underclass. While this does help the economy, it’s contrary to the point of social services, which is that they help society thrive. If members of that society are filtered out, then their children are held back, they can’t start their life and contribute to the housing market, they can’t afford to go to the hospital, and when it comes to life or death, they will go to the ER. Trying to box others out hurts you more often than not in sociological scales. The only exception is the clear cut divides between the rich and the poor. If you’re a billionaire then a permanent underclass is a demonic but objectively good thing for your bottom line.
