      I guess overall theft can be a burden to stores so areas where that happen more often (poorer areas I’d guess) are more burdened by that and less profitable. But of course it’s not just because of a singular thing.

      Why do grocery stores close down in neighborhoods leaving food deserts? “They’re not profitable”

      This is 1000% the same meme as the “States rights to do what motherfucker?”
