Thats one of those things that makes you think "aw man!!! Why didn't I know???"

But realistically, if you had known you might walk off with a few thousand dollars, but somebody would have noticed. Then there would be an investigation.

Because if a poor person living in the projects dies of starvation? Oh, that's fine. That's a feature, not a bug.

But if a billion dollar bank is missing a few thousand dollars? That's cause to ruin someones life.

So in the end it's good you DIDN'T know. Because it's a big club, and you ain't in it.

They'd investigate the shit out of that but if someone broke into your house and stole your $2k TV they'd file a report and tell you to pay to change your locks.
