General Discussion

Part of the reason they are closing down stores especially in places like the Bay Area that have lax "we don't prosecute" policies on shoplifting is because thieves are well aware that you can just stroll in with a shopping cart and as long as you stay below $950 (I think?) they won't even lift a finger to charge you with a crime. Since the total here was so close to $950, I'm wondering if these two people weren't real good at math and thought they were under the total.

Of course food prices are a problem all over. So what is the solution, that we all steal all the food? Do we need to have locked supermarkets that no one can enter, like practically all the products in the Walgreens now need an employee to open the case so you can get toothpaste or deodorant because it's either that or close more stores?
