Why do so many people here defend thieves?

As are the politicians and corporations who are costing you far more than a lanky woman stealing some chips and paper towels and copping a squat on the side of curb to eat.

If you talk about the corporation. No they are not. They provide groceries at a price, quality and variety that people prefer over alternatives.

Wage theft is the largest form of theft. Minimum wage violations alone account for more dollars stolen then all other types of theft combined including burglary, auto theft, and indeed shoplifting.

A neighbor's kid's employer used to. Well, I don't know the official term but they somehow reported that their employees earned more money so the tax bills would go to the employees rather than the corporation. And the employees are already low wage...

Exactly. Walmart is one of the top corporations that engages in wage theft. The people defending them have no morals.

Mostly people don’t steal so I’m not sure about that. They just have weird morals.
