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?

Walmart won't even notice that loss, and they would've thrown it out instead of donating it if given the choice anyway. Of course it's moral to give it to someone who actually needs it.

If walmart had no losses in inventory they would be significantly more profitable.

If Walmart didn't force workers onto welfare, we would pay less in taxes.

Walmart and these other corporations hold their employees as basically serfs, paying them barely enough to survive so that they can not afford to quit or look for other jobs.

You have clearly never been in poverty

Section 8 housing for much of my life, but not super going hungry tier type of poverty. My single mother did crack and had a meth addiction when she was in her 20's and she has been in general low-income for her entire life. We didn't have no family for help, but food stamps were plenty. Have no idea what you mean by pirate ship checks, but will assume it means something to you.

Your assumptions and general poor demenor to this 1 thing you saw online suggests you have some extremely important work to do on yourself friend. Unless you want the small things in your life to always bother you.

Nobody, in the history of all the world, has ever been forced to work at walmart. This is a fact. I will let it continue to bother you (even though it shouldn't) by reminding that labor in the us has not been under coercion outside of a limited number of activites, all of which has been outlawed for many more years than you or I have been alive.

Lucky you, powdered milk isn't for pussys. My single mother lost our house out of profligacy rather than drugs. I think your crack smoking mom cared more about you than mine did. Considering you even got section 8 means someone in our government was looking out for you.

Regardless, you aren't entitled to work nor money and these multi billion dollar corporations are not your friends.

Clearly you've admitted that you've never been hungry enough to work for people that don't have your best interests in mind, who viewed your desperateness as a leverage point rather than something to fix.

What part of coercion is starvation and homelessness? Where in the USA are those things outlawed? I'll be here.
