I use newpipe on phone, opened this in my browser just so I could reply and say that you perfectly sum up how I see Jake Tran. His target audience is the definition of the phrase 'internet intellectual' with a main course of young and impressionable teens that will buy into the "economics advice" he shills to his audience.
@@kermit8173 I appreciate the reply. I 100% agree with you. I get the impression he took one introductory economics class and now feeds the cynical nature of his fans.
To be fair most American big companies ARE actually evil. It’s almost a rule at this point.

difficult to discern whether it's going
negative or bullish

I don't like NFTs, I don't want anything to do with NFTs, I don't care if that NFT is free, & I am not going to be a part of a clique that profits from NFTs.

I haven't paid for a pair of shoes since 1997. Thanks walmart. :)
Proud to say that I haven’t purchased anything from Walmart in over 10 years. Haven’t missed it at all.
Damn
I'm trying to do that, it's just so hard when the government is sucking all our money from us. I avoid Wal-Mart as much as I can
But I bet you switched to Amazon... pretty much the same thing if not worse
Ig that's nice but you're a dtop in the ocean in their earnings, you arent really affecting their bottom line. The best way is to support politicians that will force companies to be more humane.
Costco Wholesale for the win. They treat their workers right
bro I just left my job at Walmart as a Manager for 3 and a half years, and im so glad to go. while they pay well for the work and have good benefits , they treat their employees like shit and upper management is soul less
Hey a video about my hometown, neato. But Walmart actually controls everything down here and it’s kinda awful, there’s a Walmart at least every 5 miles it’s insane, and every job around here relies on Walmart to succeed
Also known as "US govt doesn't act on all monopolies".
Remember stealing from Wal-Mart is not only the right thing to do but the only right thing you can do as both a worker and a customer
No.
"Stealing " is not solution at all
5:01 sounds like a promotion of the classical "pump and dump" definition
I lived in a small town in arkansas and in less then a year a local grocery shutdown they just could not compete with walmarts dominance walmart made the small county to add stop lights were its at too and pay for all the grading "land flooded really bad"
"Here's a video about the evils of monopolistic business practices. But first, visit our sponsor, a ponzi scheme."
Pricing & monopoly aside - I avoid Walmart at all costs simply because of the weirdos & dirt balls that flock there. It's well worth the extra money spent going to the local grocery store.
Not to mention the parking lot is a complete zoo.
It's a bit dismissive to say "Walmart proves the general public is willing to turn a blind eye to anything for their own personal gain" rather isn't it that, without a better alternative people go back to what they know whether it does harm or not? Maybe this can be further considered and revised.
I love Walmart. I always look there first for any purchase. Then, if they don't have it I start to shop around. All I care about is what it costs me out of pocket. How the item got so cheap is somebody else's problem. I need my own money to survive.

Great documentary man, waiting for mk ultra doc.
When he said razor thin margins I didn't know how thin until I looked at the income statement. They made 140 billion in a quarter but pulled in a net profit of 3 billion. Target made about half that net profit with only 25 billion in revenue.
Not going to lie, shopping at Walmart, you can save up to a 100-200 bucks rather then shopping at other grocery stores. Inflation has brought the cost up of many things. I can’t imagine how much more it would be for a family of 4.
Is it selfish? Sure, however it’s expensive out there for the regular joe.
Oh come on man, you could have had such a good rep, but no, NFTs
How can they move the hours to next week so they don't count as extra, if the next week they also have to work extra?
I believe XRP lawsuit will be one of the most pivotal moments in history and is defining crypto regulations. Not to mention the massive piece of corruption that is behind it.
I wonder if any of those commercials actors still work for the mart of wal
And that’s on why I shop locally
This is nonsense, the company doesn't mean shit outside US.
If there are some people which ready to work for $3/hr, why should you pay them $12? That's nonsense. I don't see the point here.
70% of workers turnover in Wal-mart is compensated by the great promotions which Wal-mart provides. I know an assistant manager which has 9 classes of education, she was trained and from a floor associate grew up to present position with much higher pay check. The training is very good, people after being department managers in the Walmart successfully work as a store managers in smaller stores like Save-a-lot.
The idea behind this is that one can have temporarily job in the Wal-mart like being a student or having the second job, but then he either get promoted or find another job somewhere else. That's why they keep the paycheck for workers relatively small (its still competitive though).
Trade unions in the Wal-mart excluded and never welcome, that's true. But it doesn't mean that an issue cannot be resolved within the Wal-mart, workers can appeal to the managers at any level with their concerns.
Medical insurance in Wal-mart could be better for sure, but on the other hand it cost only $35 from paycheck. Can you find anything better on the market for this price?
And also it wouldn't be right to say that Wal-mart has no competitors. Amazon is successfully doing its business breathing into the neck of Walmart.
So, every situation has its positive and negative sides, and this is true for Wal-mart also. They provide jobs for 2,3 million people and not a fact that they could do it if their strategy would be different.
Cheers.
I used to work at Walmart. We all make mistakes.
So it’s a problem they made things cheaper to work employees
Promoting nfts is just sad cmon
This is why i quit

I love how every genius economy tactic is "It's just price war with extra steps"
It’s awesome. It’s like our economy is designed to reward innovative new ideas and as time goes on the only ideas they come up with is how to more elaborately exploit.
Seems like a flawed design to me :D
@@MrRealeyesrealize To be honest, as a third world country born, the fact we are cheap labor are out governments fault, they fucked our internal economies so hard, that someone that earns $ 900 here are considered "rich", and a Corolla and standard Hinda Civic are seeing as a "luxury" car.
First world countries companies just take advantage of the situation we caused to ourselves, and to be honest, in the cirrent situation, they even help a little.
Of course, it would be better to our state to stop being a problem to become helpful and logical... But i doubt this will happen anytime soon, considering the avarege local is dumb and ignorant as door.
“Seems like slavery, but with extra steps”

I noticed the same red flag in a big supermarket chain in my country. They probably took inspiration from Walmart. A single worker is responsible for the meat section, dairy section, cooked food/salads section and the bakery section. It's like working in four small stores at once.

Agreed.
“Walmart proves the general public will turn a blind eye for anything, even if it’s for personal discount.”
The truth.
Actually, there may be many reason people won't magically stop to go to Walmart when big scandals are revealed. Perhaps people have other things to think (their own family for example ?), perhaps they don't know about each product of each shop, perhaps it is the only grocery store in the village, perhaps the competition has shady practises as well, perhaps they are preparing a revolution... Jake thinks humans are inherently selfish and money driven before he even makes this video, so he considers people are turning a blind eye to their fellow brothers, point proven ! But it is only the case if you trust it first, othewise, it does prove nothing about the general public. It is a quite protestant capitalistic point of vue not everyone holds.
There isn't always an alternative. It is several department stores in 1
The general public is broke and needs things cheap lol. If you're selling cheap, that's where they're going to buy. You can't place the onus and responsibility of the actions of a multimillion dollar company on your average every day Joe or Jane who's options are buy at Walmart and make rent or support local stores and be homeless.
@@hirokoai3013 Nestle, DuPont etc....naah bro, people are evil
@@entropicpedro Or the social structure is made in such a way, the people who are ready to easily make moral sacrifices are the ones who seize power on our political and economic system. If there is, for example, a competition to power (De Mesquita model), people who are ready for everything for power compete with some who are more ready to sacrifice some power for the greater good. Guess who wins ? In this situation, you can deal with Nestlé, DuPont, MacDonalds, DeBeer, Disney, Bolloré, Exxon-Mobil, Samsung, Bayer, Ikea, Nature, Universal, Starbucks, BlackRock and so on, by sharing economic power with everyone (another solution is to let it to an algorithm, but it brings a new set of problems). It means the most corruptible people won't seize power alone, and will have to deal with the majority of (more morally inclined) people. If people are not naturally bad (my position : I consider "good and evil" depends on people, with cultural factors, the ability to break our own ethical rules depends also on the person).

Be like Germany, just say no to Walmart, it can't legally expand if you say no.
Yeah, but with the amount of government money provided to Walmart, there is a vested interest in both the state and Walmart to work together. Walmart may be “evil”, but it feeds billions of people, quite literally.
Trying to break it up or use state intervention would just make the problem even more worse, like what happened with Rockefeller and Standard Oil.
@@Emistotle "Walmart may be “evil”, but it feeds billions of people, quite literally. "

@@Emistotle wrong. Businesses with better business practices will just take its place. Basic supply and demand
@@X9523-z3v preventing companies from driving their competitor out of business by selling products under their production cost is not governmental overreach but an effective anti monopoly policy.

@@sawlty-suite5131 he's not gonna encourange more patrons to support him if his audience sees him shilling for scams. I mean, hello fresh would literally sponsor anyone, he could have just taken something like that or similarly innocuous to build up his reputation and the people's trust in him. That's how creators get more patrons on patreon.
@@sawlty-suite5131 what a retarded opinion. He's gonna lose a lot of subs over it and rightfully so. It quite literally is a scam he's promoting lmao
Yes, this is what was missing in my day. Capitalism :D
So capitalist that they shut the place down at merely the sound of the word “union”
> Builds a channel known for critiquing and deconstructing capitalism
> Promotes a crypto/NFT trading platform
You're sending us mixed signals, Jake
Extreme capitalism
@@hazerion9070 he is not anti capitalist or against it at all. He’s against cronie capitalism which resembles socialism.
He’s a self avowed libertarian.
Don't work there, don't shop there, done.
I’m really starting to get an odd feeling about this channel. The amount of content it puts out is too much for him to be doing by himself. Combined with the numerous sketchy ads, I just feel like there’s more to this
Makes videos about the dark side of business, and then promotes NFT scams to his viewers. The irony is real!
Can't believe he is still shilling that NFT-scam. Crazy that his conscience is for sale like that. This won't go well in the long-term.
Bruh he’s just making money
@@Yavl just like all the companies he makes videos about…
In the end the message at 13:33 applies even for him
@@Yavl His videos are frequently about fraudsters, scams or some other schemes. Kinda spineless to sell one to your own audience, he obviously knows it is one but I am sure they pay him insane sums since they know he is a trustable creator that makes great content.
Man has to eat
@@sawlty-suite5131 Man doesn't have to subject his subscribers scummy scams. I am sure he is making enough to eat already ;). Integrity always pays off in the long-run but i guess he still has to learn that.
Jake “capitalism is bad”, also jake “ look at this cool pump and dump scam you can join”
Jake has never said capitalism is bad. I don't know where you get off thinking he's a socialist. He literally just preaches smart money decisions.
@@fareflight2029 actually your right, i retract my prior statement
He his very capitalist, as a socialist myself, I hear it everytime he considers selfishness as "just human nature", and also to his very individualistic statements about credit for example.
Who else buys groceries at Walmart lol?
We all passively support then anyway
In the UK its Lidl and Aldi for me
@@yourrelaxingbuddy5911 cheaper then target 🤷🏽
Hell no Food Lion is better
Walmart scared to come to glorious communist land of Kerala
Really, a fucking nft ad? On THIS channel of all places, jeez
Left behind?
Lost a bit of respect ngl
I don’t know if you’ve done one. But if there is a “dark history” to Dollar General I’d love to see you do one of those. I work for Dollar General in a warehouse stacking bleach all day for 12 hours. As big as DG is… I know they have to have corruption involved and cut throat policies that got them there.
Lmao you don’t even know if there is a dark history and you’re assuming there is one? Careful with that mindset my man, it’s a road to paranoia.
@@fashfront Dollar General is not cheap lol
We got 10 dg stores in my county

@@Bobin10101 no dollar General has an actual history of Union busting, under staffing and minimum pay possibly even worse than Walmart
Bro how are you gonna keep promoting this scam nft project while making the type of content you do criticizing shady business behaviors. Can’t believe I’m saying this but you’ve earned this dislike 👎
I’ve enjoyed your content ever since discovering it, Jake, but if you’re gonna keep shilling for this scam, I can’t support your work anymore.
I live in upstate New York, and NFT and crypto mining shit literally makes people freeze out here because poorer people can’t pay for heating with the way that the sheer energy usage drives costs up. I thought you were better than trying to push these get-rich-quick schemes on your viewers. Then I thought you just made one mistake.
The irony of a YT channel who calls out sketchy shit accepting a sponsor who does sketchy shit sure isn't hard to see,is it?
True NFTs are stupid garbage
I found the problem...
You live in New York.
How much is 200k views in this climate? Close to nothing so it's easy to speak from where you are. Are you even a patron?
@@ashholiday123 Upstate, which is pretty much everything BUT what you think of when you say New York.
It's full of people getting exploited by grifters with too much money to fight, ignoring things we need, and projects started and abandoned after they've gotten whatever short-term thing they've wanted. All this while living nearby one of the greatest hydroelectric power sources in the country...
I don't even hate the city we're named for like a lot of people do, but it really is a completely different world... And yeah, one that is a bit of a problem place stuff like this genuinely worsens.
I've boycotted Walmart for over 12 years now. And even prior to that,I rarely shopped there. I live in a small town and have seen the small,independent, family owned business's driven to bankruptcy and closure. It pisses me off......I won't give my hard earned money to Walmart. Or Amazon for that matter.....
I'll spend a few bucks more to support the working class families~!!
I respect you for it
Yeah walmart wrecked my hometown. There were so many nice shops all over town especially the main street. Now you go down main street and half the buildings are empty or turned into tattoo shops or bars.
😂😂😂😂
It’s going to happen if you like it or not they been closing for years now
Sadly, you are just an anecdote.
Do Microsoft and activision blizzard next.
I used to work for Walmart 2 years ago. They fired me on my birthday, I was about to get 3 years working for them. I was on the fruits area, lack of personal, underpaid, working 50 hours every week and only being paid 42. It was a nightmare.
Walmart has lost lawsuits for the wage theft they’ve committed
See my story of overtime lawsuit above!! You'll enjoy it!
The video is amazing so far until you start shilling NFTs
No thank you, you even admitted how much of a disgusting scam they are, I stopped watching this video now the moment you touch that disgusting scam, bye
A greedy man taking advantage of the greedy.
It's honestly genius.
Most of the people who shop at Walmart do it because they are underpaid so much that they can't afford to shop elsewhere, not because they are greedy
are you referring to wal-mart employees as greedy?
@@ignacio479 it's us, the consumers. its our fault too
@@mickpeterson3722 the working class can't afford to shop at expensive places so i don't think it's really their fault
@@yrdeft9774 It is.
Bro I love your vids but you gotta stop selling scams man 😔
Jake Tran, don't you realize Walmarts are living entities? I would not suggest shopping at one in the future.
What?
?
Walmart is an SCP confirmed
Infinite IKEA be like
@@Bobin10101 South Park reference

Jake: Here's your weekly dose of capitalism, sir.
I was a cashier at Walmsrt in 1993. it was back to school time and very busy. A black mother was checking out and her little boy was bouncing around and leapt on the conveyor belt, which trapped his lower arm tissue tight in the belt. He began screaming of course. I instantly leapt on the belt with my full weight to give him a chance to be freed, which happened. I mentioned his skin color because a bruise or redness would not have been visible yet. His mother thanked me profusely but the Walmart supervisor was called over and scolded me in front of everyone for possibly putting Walmart in legal trouble.
I was ordered to put Walmart first and never do anything that even implied an accident. After another similar issue with them I left quickly and was told I could never work at Walmart again. The supervisor who told me that seemed to think that was a horrible punishment!!
Later Walmart put the lawsuits over overtime pay in the hands of a famous law office which is here...one of the first in the USA. My son was a courier there and lugged hundreds of boxes of Walmart records back and forth from the warehouse to the office and back for weeks. Finally he came and told me the law firm (Bouhan and Levy and the head lawyer owned UGA the Georgia mascot bulldog) and announced Bouhan had sent all the boxes back to Arkansas with the firm message that Walmart had NO CASE and had to pay up.
Everything you say here is only a peek at the company.
There's no way I've disliked more than 20 videos in my history of using this site ever
Congrats. You've earned it. Sick NFT shill
Did you dislike on hs patron?
Hahaha you’re username is perfect for this situation
Imagine being a multi-billion corporation making bilions on profit that won't even pay for overtime to their workers....
That's one of the reason why they become billionaire...
Put moral in then bin..
The irony is heartbreaking here. Jake is seriously shilling NFT scams, damn dude I really thought you cared about your audience. Cya! Hope the few thousand $’s was worth ruining your reputation. Don’t become the thing you expose bro, you’re better than that
just paused the video when he tried to shill NFT scam, unsubbed and closing this tab. I'd rather google info. or miss out on it, than hear another word from Jake. Thanks for ruining your own reputation. Good luck earning new audience 👍
I worked at Walmart as a Customer Service Manager for 3 years while going to college. I never stepped into a store again because I want them to fucking go out of business.
They make $500 billion a year, yet won’t pay their employees $20 an hour with somewhat benefits. Fvcking greed. Goddamn capitalism dude. 😒
Walmart: You go in clean and innocent, ya come out dirty and experienced.
Huh?
You lost me in your nft ad. Not because I don't understand it, I'm happily invested, but it left a bad taste in my mouth since you're promoting this to many people with 0 knowledge in the space.
Honestly I would be careful about this long term. People can change their opinion if they buy in because you gave it your blessing, only to lose money. And even people who don't buy in may start changing their opinion as they see you post more nft ads. If 1% of people stop viewing your content because of this that isn't a lot, but the more you promote it the higher likelihood that 1% compounds and your views start sliding. Food for thought, love the content but the nft ad for a no name no utility nft stuck out like a sore thumb.
If it did that for me and I'm someone who has an actual understanding of the space, can't imagine how out of place and forced it felt for people who aren't active in nft's
couldn’t agree more
Isn't this discord group in the ad a "pump and dump" scheme? It's kinda weird to see and ad like this on this channel...
I am very disappointed that you would advertise NFTs of all things... You shine light on the failings of capitalism, and then shill out for NFTs, the most predatory capitalistic ideas ever. Come on man...
You know it’s frustrating I was going to subscribe to the patreon but since you promote scams in some of your videos maybe it’s best off I buy an Adblock and watch your content for free so I can get back at you in true capitalist style. Do better bro or coffezilla will get you. You crapped it when he came after you last time
I've worked for Walmart since 2001 and can confirm literally everything in this video firsthand
Why have you stayed all these years if they are such a horrible company?
@@macgp44 Small town with with little to no job opportunities
@@timosman9172 y'all got weed tho?
Don't you hate the way some people make it a religion?
I think the reason why he advertising more useless stuff lately because he is confident that we, the viewers of his channel, are smart enough not to fall for shit like that
Ignorance is a bliss
Jake Tran the type of dude to expose scams while simultaneously peddling them
Hire me or I riot, I can do this all day Jake
Aren’t NFTs bad for the environment since they’re connected to cryptocurrency? Which takes up huge amounts of energy?
Watching this while on my lunch break at walmart
major disrespect to your viewers by promoting NFTs like this man especially if its a sketch company/org like metamonks who has high potential of scaming us.....please do your research
if an NFT scam is making an ad, then you've already missed the hype train big time. why tf did you choose them as sponsors?
I work at walmart, and my department is understaffed as fuck. but the worst part is, they refuse to fire people. so people who havent shown up in months keep getting shifts, and obviously they never come. i think walmart does this so they dont have to hire a new person who will come and then walmart will actually have to pay them.
another weird thing about working at walmart is everything goes through "walmart corporate". i live in canada, and work in a canadian walmart, but if i need to submit a change to my availability, it goes through american walmart corporate. when i was hired my resume was selected by american walmart corporate. this goes for everyone and everything. really makes you think how much shady shit is going down behind the scenes because everything has to go through this weird governing body of people i'll never see or know.
Dude, try to get hired at Costco!
It’s the same issue at every Walmart, they hire the bare minimum amount of people to keep profits as high as possible. Any extra people and they’ll argue ‘we have too many people’, which is bullshit because we get issues of not working things fast enough. It’s a cycle of complaining that people aren’t working hard enough, then not giving that department enough people to make that work be possible. Then people leaving and the cycle repeats.
would love to see one on Target! i know they say they source their clothing from the same more ethical clothing factories abroad as more ethical brands like Everlane, but who knows if either of those are true.
