Lets also be real, if your a person struggling to make ends meet and feed yourself and family I sympathise. If your a 15yo who wants to get drunk in a park and is going to shoplift to make it happen, I dont give a fuck.
Most people are the latter category. So many kleptos that steal small stuff for a tiny rush, it's maddening
The highest rise is in middle class shoplifting. A lot of it is about entitlement. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/nov/28/its-no-surprise-middle-class-shoplifting-is-on-the-rise-no-one-ever-checks-my-bag
