that's not my point, my point is by stealing from large stores you don't just affect some fat cat sitting in an office

anyone who says stealing is a victimless crime is dumb

dont defend your crimes by painting yourself as a white knight bringing down the system one loaf of bread at a time

be happy you got away with it, take the kudos from your peers for being a badman, and try and stop before you get caught cos you'll look like a dick when that happens

and for fucks sake
dont defend your crimes by painting yourself as a white knight bringing down the system one loaf of bread at a time
cos it needs to be said again

dont get me wrong, im not particularly against stealing... i just dont pretend its morally alright to do

i also dont particularly care about always doing the right thing

its an elaborate way of allowing me to do what the fuck i want whilst judging others

True, however it is arguable that stealing is always stealing from a person.

What about the fact that super market pricing takes into account people stealing. The super market never loses, they just pass the loss onto the customer, like insurance companies do.

Just because the company has factored it in doesn't mean you should do it.
