if not for government programs, nobody would work at Walmart...they wouldn't even accept the job if offered...opportunity cost would be too great

Could you explain, ideally by using numbers (either real or example) to illustrate your argument? Something along the lines of:

No government subsidies, no job at walmart: earnings + unearned income = $x

No govt subsidies, job at walmart: earnings + unearned income = $y

etc.
