    Thats what food banks are for. Theft is illegal and unethical.

      The only way you think stealing to live is unethical is if you value property more than life.

      On a grand scale: That’s what states are for. On a personal scale: If states let people go hungry, don’t make their life harder than it already is, don’t be an asshole.

      Let’s see… I’m starving and impoverished. I could steal some fresh, nutritious food or I could go to the food bank and have an expired can of creamed corn.

      You’re right, food bank.

      Yes stealing food is unethical. If someone steals your food you should take it right back off them.

      That’s why I do all my shoplifting at the duopoly stores that are currently under government investigation for wage theft and price gouging… and not the community grocer who isn’t stealing from the public.
