If I cared enough, I'd tell someone because I hate thieves, but I generally prefer to mind my own business. Same philosophy if I saw someone stealing from a small business.

Walmart and their ilk steal far more in wage theft than they lose to shoplifters.

"These companies don't pay their employees enough, in my opinion, so I'm ok with people stealing from them."

Just say what you mean.

If you hate thieves, you should love shoplifters. The real thieves are at the top scheming more ways to fuck the poor.
