For me, it’s a matter of how little they know the world around them and how things affect other things. Case and point, when voters thought that voting Trump in, that he would magically make egg prices go down. They’re going down now, from what I saw shopping earlier today, but they weren’t because of him.
Another example is how when shop lifters, when they shoplift, always think that they’re harming who they call ‘The Man’ aka corporate operating the stores, directly. That’s not entirely true and I know this having worked retail several times and currently.
Who you’re hurting, really, is the store itself and those that work in it. The store pulls its own profits in by how many people shop there and part of that profit, is distributing to those who work there. When you’re stealing from that store, you are actively harming that store’s profits and in turn, harming those that work there.
The CEOs and executives are still raking in millions and they aren’t above having to shut down stores over dipshit thieves which in turn, costs a lot of jobs in that store to absorb the profits to make up whatever costs.
On a post about judging people’s intelligence, you said that employees are paid off of the pool of profit left over at the end of the day. That’s so fucking untrue that no one has the time to even START explaining it to you. That is not at all how that flow works.
If the ENTIRE store is ransacked and all products are stolen, everyone that works at that store still gets paid because they all work for contracts that have no stipulations about whether or not the store is robbed. We are talking about big box stores and not mom and pop shops.
I think you may have low intelligence, per your own standards.
