Well the arithmetic isn’t that simple. Cost of purchasing goods is far from WMT’s only cost. So even if you assumed that particular expense increased 25% (reality being less), the impact to profit would be always less.

I believe you have to think a little more long term before submitting to the idea that “I can’t change anything”.

Can I change things in the next 1 hour? If you’re broke now, probably yes you will still be broke after 1 hour.

But that’s not how life works. We go to schools and develop ourselves in other ways, to have a better life 10 or 20 years later.

That’s an implausible take. Loyal employees wouldn’t go for such a ploy and disgruntled employees … well, conceivably would take such action on their on volition.
