I disagree. According to Walmart here, the average Walmart associate makes $11.75 an hour.
If 4 such associates were to pool their resources, they would collectively make $94,000 a year. More than enough to allow 4 people to live a very comfortable lifestyle. Or even 9 people to live a somewhat comfortable lifestyle (assuming 4 adult workers, 1 adult child care, 4 children).
Of course this isn't the "American Dream" of 2.1 children, a white picket fence, dog in the yard, 2 cars, a home entertainment system, cable, internet, smartphones, Disney vacation per year, Starbucks latte every day, Prada purse, etc. etc. etc....but it's certainly livable.
