Walmart periodically increases wages for all its employees. Its wages are higher than the federal minimum wage but still below the hourly rate recommended by labor activist groups. Walmart has been increasing employee wages incrementally and will most likely continue to do so, but as it does, labor activists will continue to raise their recommended minimums to keep pace with the cost of living. Respond to the following questions using credible sources from your own research: Does Walmart raise wages because of supply and demand in the labor market or because of the pressure of labor activist organizations? Explain your reasoning based on Walmarts wage increase history. Should Walmart raise wages to match what labor activists are calling for? Why or why not? Should the government raise the minimum wage? If so, to what level? Provide and cite current research to support your answer. Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed in each short paper: Main Elements. Describe the main elements and requirements and cite examples to illustrate each element. Inquiry and Analysis. Provide in-depth analysis that demonstrates a complete understanding of concepts. Explain how you reached your conclusions by using clear and relevant examples from credible research. Integration and Application. Correctly apply the concepts discussed in the module corresponding with the assignment. Critical Thinking. Draw informed conclusions that are justified with evidence. Research. Incorporate some scholarly resources effectively that reflect the depth and breadth of research. Articulation of Response.
