@j_roby posted a Gravel Institute tweet that deserved its own post.

This is the story that tweet was based on.

[Image description: picture of a tweet from @GravelInstitute stating "Someone stole $950 worth of items from a Walgreen’s - there were 309 stories about it. Walgreen’s was caught stealing $4.5 million from employees - it got just one single story.]

Although I desagree with the two sentences in your first line. You are right when you say that when people get privileges they use it. Especially when they have shareholders expecting you to deliver the higher profit you that you can come up with.

And poor people are more than right to take back what was stolen from them, regardless if others disagree and think it is not correct.
