An Indian has been caught taking off a public sanitizerbottle off the dispenser, take his time, keep it in his backpack, and leave theATM with his head held high.
The company property that was looted is insignificant inmonetary terms, but the character this Indian will instil in their spouse andchildren – that, most probably, has been damaged beyond repair.
Philosophers say that a person can lie to everybody but not themselves.This person, having successfully conducted this theft, saved his family about$3, but in their heart of hearts knows that the thing he has done is unethical.
The original poster, a cop, gives the thief the doubt ofbeing a kleptomaniac, but this author is not willing to give a thief thisslack.
Actions like these lead to the economic problem of “tragedyof the commons”, in which individuals neglect the well-being of society in thepursuit of personal gain.
