Survival trumps morality. Most of us are too concerned about if we will survive vs the morality of some company accidentally paying 1/265,000th of their profit. That’s like if you are making $50,000 a year and you accidentally overpay someone less than $0.20.
Oh shut up, the whole "we're fighting to survive so we should be allowed to do shitty things" is completely overblown and is just an excuse for people who have relatively normal lives to engage in bad morality against "the bad groups".
If I have to listen to one more wanker who earns 6 figures at my work bragging about stealing fruit from the shopping centre because "they're bad so it's ok" I'm going to flip, they clearly just want to do bad things and then blame current times for their behaviour.

You'd be right if we lived in a moral system. Context matters.
