Just saw a story about how wage theft was in the trillions but shoplifting and petty crime were like 450 billion. So companies are stealing (not just like low wages, but actual time stamped wages they owed for O.T. and breaks) 10x the amount people steal from them AND each other. Also correct, no one goes to jail and IF they get caught they only have to pay the actual wages, no fines. So there's literally nothing to discourage them from trying other than..... morals. 😢
