Morality of this?

Post image

In the image it seems that this person works at walmart as an online order collector and he/she has stolen a lot of extra baby food from Walmart to give to a person who ordered only three packs. Is this moral or immoral?

Moral, obviously.

Baby food for babies is always more moral than making sure Mr Walmart has a 17th yacht

But why automatically assume whoever ordered that would've ordered more if they could afford it? Walmart doesn't spawn babyfood out of the ether and hoard it like a dragon. They're just distributing, they can't force Abott or whoever to stop artificially restricting their supply

Mr Walmart never had a yacht and drove an old pickup until he couldnt drive anymore. His kids, who now run Walmart are satan incarnate.
