Topic: Walton Family

Bernie Sanders appeared on Fox News to advocate for a $15 federal minimum wage, targeting the Walton family's wealth as a justification. Sanders argued that taxpayers are effectively subsidizing Walmart's low wages through social programs like Medicaid and food stamps. The hosts acknowledge the simplicity and effectiveness of Sanders' pitch, even as they remain critical of his overall socialist platform.

The hosts cite reports from the RAND Corporation and Economic Policy Institute suggesting there is no actual shortage of STEM workers in the U.S. They argue that the corporate push for STEM education and Common Core is a strategy for wage suppression. A promotional video from the Walton Family Foundation is analyzed as a tool for promoting charter schools and low-wage labor.
