To feed people who dont have money to buy food… So they dont have to steal.

So it’s not out of touch to recognize some people can’t afford to meet their basic needs.

They can’t meet their basic needs and they get food stamps. This is good
You are claiming they NEED to steal. This wrong.

And you think they can? Why would they risk heavy fines for a fecking loaf of bread?!

Heavy fines? Shoplifting anything under 2k you walk off Scott free and thats only in the unlikely chance you get caught.

Where are you from? In Germany this is penalised like regular theft so fines and or jail time of up to 5 years.
