Hey there! It's tough to say for sure how cracking down on self-checkout theft might affect a company's stock price. There are a lot of factors that go into determining a company's stock price, and it's likely that the impact of cracking down on self-checkout theft would be just one of many things to consider. However, it's possible that cracking down on self-checkout theft could have a positive impact on a company's financial performance, which could potentially lead to an increase in the company's stock price. It's important to remember that theft is illegal and can have serious consequences, so it's important to be honest and fair in all of our transactions.

shoplifting will always remain a thing because wagecucks just dont want to deal with that shit and police takes time to arrive, its just too easy to go unnoticed aswell. i knew an old kleptomaniac who's been stealing all his life and never got caught once despite being in his 50s now, if the store had no cameras it would just be guaranteed he stuffed his jacket with shit no matter what it was. lived for years never buying toothpaste, shampoos eating daily steaks until they'd move the products etc. almost compulsive behaviour. if there were some camera's he'd be able to tell the blindspots. if a store was big and busy he'd simply walk past the cashiers straight to the car with some big expensive item on his shoulder. there will always be tired uncaring wagecucks, and people who have the balls to take advantage.

There is no infrastructure to account for automation. Automation is good. Problem is society has no safety net set up for when 50%+ of jobs get automated. That doesn't mean automation is the devil.

I think the real reason there's no plan is quite literally because politicians in general are fucking retarded. Genuinely stupid creatures. All in all we'd get a revolution with the current system is automation runs wild with no safety net. People without jobs will probably take their anger out on corporations and politicians and there would be arson everywhere. Strikes as well. I also imagine this could be a problem for businesses too (revolution aside) because automation with the current system = less consumers = less profits.

there is no such thing as the working class.
automation does every real job besides professionals (lawyers, doctors, and then only for legal liability reasons) and trades (but robotics will change that, think 3D printed houses).
What you call "working class" is nothing more than adult day care. things like fast food and star bucks and shitty retail stores exist as a form of adult day care, and that's all it really is.

no boomer cop is going to go through that kind of trouble for some shoplifting, most of it isn't pursued at all or even reported, this is why intelligent people are less likely to shoplift because they invent all these extremely unlikely scenarios where the cops can find them, but that never ever happens. in theory almost every crime is impossible nowadays, if you just assume people give a shit all the time. in reality crime goes just as unpunished as it did like 50 years ago despite all the technology we have including murder.

Having just a glance at how much loss does Walmart suffer due to theft, it would seem quite beneficial and logical to have someone or at least a solid system, to guard its security, at each branch.
