What is shoplifting compared to the bailout this bank and its depositors are about to get? Shoplifting should obviously be illegal, but everyone being assisted by this bank situation should eat a 12 gauge slug

For finance-illiterate people like me, things like shoplifting feels far more visceral. Seeing blatant criminal activity happening right in front of one’s face (talking real stuff, not like speeding or littering or w/e) destroys a sense of community safety and once it happens to someone on an individual level, the person usually feels completely violated. Now I know boo hoo big stores aren’t people but like I said they do provide jobs and once they all close down and move shop due to crime, your town starts to look like Detroit
I know stores tell their own employees they can’t stop a shoplifter due to liability, but if it happens at stores in my neighborhood, it’s going to piss me off to the point where I might do something stupid like put myself in their way in a way that makes them put hands on me, to where I can physically respond and hopefully someone will be recording it to where I can avoid an assault charge
But yea, I’m obv also against bank fraud too which is why I enjoyed seeing that crypto-bank guy SBF go down. And I’ve never supported bank bailouts either
