Why surprised? All these democrats are in bed with Jeff Bezos and his Washington Post.

The more retail stores go under, the more order flow Amazon gets

Many brick and mortar stores have an online segment that allows for both ship to home or ship to nearest store for pickup. These retail companies need to put more emphasis on those options to reduce the merchandise that is displayed in the store and thus at risk for shoplifting.

You're talking retail chains. Small businesses have no such online visibility and they were crushed the hardest

Man arrested from the San Francisco Walgreens where he filled a trash bag with stolen goods. Found out he had hit the same Walgreens 4 days in a row. Also noted they're pretty sure he's working for organized theft rings since the stolen goods have been found for sale elsewhere. When arrested they also found drug paraphernalia on him.

Apparently not stealing for a loaf of bread.

4 days in a row, can't those organized crime thugs give the guy a day off? They should be reported to the Labor Department!

He's probably a contractor working for commission so he would be exempt. And incentivized to 'work' as much as possible.

In San Francisco in particular that is a very telling question.

Wonder what logic the DAs office is manufacturing as we speak.
