    I wonder why people don’t just apply to Walmart with their friends and play the long con and pull a heist with one guy working as the manager, one guy working at the electronics, one guy doing the stocking, etc.

      What better way to get away clean than to have your photo ID and social security card on file with the people you're stealing from

      You say that as if most of the rural south's economy isn't entirely run like that. When I was a corpo scumbag assistant, almost every GM had some sort of scam running with his boys, it was just a matter of sussing out which one it was because they weren't super clever about it. Corporate only started to care if you started posting multiple quarter losses, because otherwise they still won on the exploitation end of things.
