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

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.
