Walmart and their ilk steal far more in wage theft than they lose to shoplifters.

    "These companies don't pay their employees enough, in my opinion, so I'm ok with people stealing from them."

    Just say what you mean.

    I'm not OK with people stealing from them because they don't pay people enough.

    I'm OK with people stealing from them and they don't pay their employees enough, and they still steal more in wage theft than is shoplifted from them.

    Why do you feel compelled to play unpaid security guard for a bunch of billionaires? They neither need nor appreciate your help.

    I care about billionaires as much as I care about you and poor people: the sum of zero. My opinion is simply that, my opinion.

    You care enough to intervene, to correct me, and to keep posting to tell me you don't care.

    OK, my guy.

    This is a public forum. Where debate and conversation takes place. Having a conversation with someone doesn't mean you care about them. That's an odd conclusion to reach. Chill out guy. It's ok when people disagree with you. It's a good thing. It's a way of being exposed to new ways of thinking. If you're looking for an echo chamber, I'm sure reddit is taking new users.
