It is true that some people think stealing is acceptable. Sad but true. They will rationalize dishonesty.

Home Depot CEO joins the chorus of decrying the sharp increase in retail theft, calling it an epidemic that is spreading faster than Covid.

Earlier this fall, a robber stealing three power washers shoved an 83 year old employee, who subsequently died of his injuries. His death has been ruled a homicide.

Home Depot and Target both treat employees like shit.

And quoting "fox" propaganda is showing us how dumb you are. This article is absurd.

Home Depot and Target can be terrible employers AND retail theft can also be a problem at the same time.

Huh, no mention of the 83 year old killed by the shoplifter? That’s Fox propaganda?

Is it still true that wage theft exceeds shoplifting and embezzlement combined?

Yep. Retail theft would go down if companies paid something closer to a living wage rather than exploiting their workers.
