Steven Shaviro Quotes

[Walmart]s Largest Innovation Consists In Getting Rid Of The Central Fordist Principle Of Paying The Workers Enough So That They Can Afford To Buy What They Manufacture. Instead, WalMart Has Pioneered The Inverse Principle: Paying The Workers So Little That They Cannot Afford To Shop Anywhere Other Than At WalMart. It Might Even Be Said, Not Too Hyperbolically, That WalMart Has Singlehandedly Preserved The American Economy From Total Collapse, In That Their Lowered Prices Are The Only Thing That Has Allowed Millions Of The "working Poor" To Retain The Status Of Consumers At All, Rather Than Falling Into The "black Hole" Of Total Immiseration. WalMart Is Part And Parcel Of How The "new Economy" Has Largely Been Founded Upon Transferring Wealth From The Less Wealthy To The Already-extremely-rich.
