This article made me think a bit. Let’s say you’re a store that is being ravaged by shoplifting. Could you theoretically eliminate ALL “in person” shopping and go to 100% curbside pickup and delivery? You could fire all cashiers, you could stock more like a warehouse, and your staff would be a bunch of kids picking stuff off of shelves, packing in cars, or delivering.

All shopping done via app, paid for online, and hustled out to you in the parking lot?

Wouldnt that solve 99% of the shoplifting problem while allowing you to remain open?

Isn’t the burden of financing all of that an unconstitutional taking?

Probably the thieves would simply change their method of five finger discount to outright armed robbery.

It would work right up until the first clerk caught a bullet.

And that would happen.
