Quote:Publicity and the reaction to it is a huge part of market adjustments. Walmart isn't raising their wages because a new federal minimum wage requires it, they're raising their employee's wages because the market is balking at them for paying such low wages, and people like you, me and plenty of others have used other resources because of it. Walmarts not stupid, they know that, so they're adjusting their pay scale. The market not the fed is doing that.
