Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.
McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.
Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.
See the problem?

Not many people are talking about the children being harmed by #ICELawlessness but it's important to talk about.
What's happening to these kids is being paid for by our tax dollars.
We're paying for the torture of children.
I know this is beyond grim, but we must let people know about this!

America has always had its hurts. Hell, it sometimes stood silent while her citizens were in pain, and sometimes looked the other way while witnessing others inflict pain. But these days America is actively, knowingly inflicting hurt, and codifing injustice. Fuck Donald Trump.
