Another thing to keep in mind, businesses in general constantly want to keep expenses down so they can sell their goods cheaper than competition. So naturally they pay as little as possible. They cheap out on the most valuable asset. The workers that do the dirty jobs (guy) to keep the rest of us alive.
So you end up with unhappy people. The USA is LOADED with unhappy working poor too. So instead they just go in stors and take out their needs. So many others here not paying electric bills. Millions stopped paying mortgages around 2007-8. I think even the gov’ts are getting unhappy with poor tax receipts, and businesses are getting unhappy with less profits because of poor customers. And thieves.
