SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- According to the California Retailer's Association three cities in our state are among the top 10 in the country when it comes to organized retail crime--Los Angeles, San Francisco and Sacramento.

Already we are seeing the negative impact it is having in San Francisco with stores permanently shutting down or closing early. It has become one of the most pressing issues in our city today.

Target has now acknowledged that San Francisco is the only city in America where they have decided to close some stores early because of the escalating retail crime.

blm made robberies glamorous again.

Capitalism caused this.

Big business swoops in, creates massive class conflict between the tech sector and other residents, prices inflate massively because of the massive purchasing power of the gentrifying tech class, people lose their homes, homelessness and crime increase. It’s a pretty direct line. The city does nothing to really help the lower classes. It caters to wealth and power. It’s a perfect example of liberalism (woke capitalism), not socialism.
Any examples you can give to solve the problem in San Francisco (outside of running the poor through a meat grinder or simply exporting the problem to another city) will necessarily be anti-capitalist, as all of the problems exist because of the class conflict caused by the tech sector.

LOL small business is about solving niche problems. Big business is about getting you that iPhone for $1000 instead of X3 times that would take a small business to produce if at all. God there are so many unfortunate people that are stuck in the old paradigm of thought it's actually sad. Big business has evolved from concept ape strong together. Lone ape weak. It's about efficiency and being able produce thing far greater and faster then what small individual can.

Unfortunate plebs running around trying to compete with big business is an evolutionary joke. Either join or start a big business venture yourself or provide a niche solution. Most trades pay well god there is so much money to be made I don't understand why people work in dead end jobs. It's basically punishment to the entitled lil shits who refuse to adapt.
Hence communism is such a popular idea amongst the lazy.

Communism is a philosophy of work.

That has failed repeatedly and is being necro'd by basement dwelling fairy thinkers. At this point I don't think anyone who floats communism is even worth the time debating.

Never been done.

Class conflict is no justification for crime. Literally starving to death would be. Essentially, you're assuming, without evidence, that the main motivation of the shoplifters is poverty and urgent material need, rather than sheer occasion. Sure, this theory of the case fits your ideological worldview. But until you provide at least some evidence for this assumption, it cannot be treated as an established fact.

coincidentally marx was a deadbeat dad that never worked a day in is life and lived on handouts from engels - so i've read

Economic crime is just the owner class using the state to keep their position. The criminal code is class conflict.
