In many places across the country, leftist policies have turned unmitigated shoplifting into a daily occurrence. While major corporations have similarly turned a blind eye to the problem, often penalizing employees for even engaging with suspected thieves, a family-owned jewelry store in El Monte, California had no such qualms.
I was in retail management for decades and I remember that if our shrink came in at over 2% managers would start shaking in their shoes about how secure their jobs were. Nowadays, most places are experiencing shrink of over 10% and it has got to the point where corporate has given up and even fires people for attempting to stop theft. Just let the thieves load up with everything they want and don't confront them. Now managers and employees are shaking in their shoes worried about either violence during the thefts or wondering if the company will stay afloat and their jobs along with it. Meanwhile, everyone is paying higher prices to make up for the shrink.
