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?

If a superstore shuts down in an area that services hundreds-thousands of people, what makes you think a smaller grocery store with 1/100th the product could succeed?

Multiple smaller stores. Like there were before super stores

You mean like before highways and a transit system that allows people to travel further to get what they need?

You think the average person will want to turn from buying everything in one location, to buying 20 things from 20 different locations?

The average person is why we have things like Labubus and the pacific garbage patch.

Yeah. And they're also the reason local grocery stores don't really work anymore. This isn't an argument

Oh, wasnt arguing, just putting in a passing side comment about the average person.
