Reminds me of the false narrative that came out a couple of years ago about Target, Walmart, Home Depot, Lowes, etc closing numerous locations due to excessive and unprecedented theft from stores when in many cases it was a way to hide poorly performing stores due to mismanagement or bad locations from shareholders.
These stories always break out during economic downturns.
Nobody wants to come to terms with the fact that a MegaMart whose customer base is drying up because of unemployment and falling wages might be failing for a reason other than gangsters from a 90s blacksploitation crime thriller doing train robbery heists in the costume jewelry department.
