Hardee's employees arrested for stealing credit cards from customers to bail out inmates
Instead of making biscuits from scratch, a group of Hardee's employees in Indiana cooked up a fraud scheme that involved stealing customer credit cards.
Employees at an Indiana Hardee’s took photos of drive-thru customers debit and credit cards and then used them to deposit money into the accounts of inmates.
Jesus, why do so many employees at a single Hardee's location know so many people in prison?
1Systemic inequality all around.

These employees are the victims.
1When people are stressed for long periods of time, they lose the ability to plan ahead. You literally can only worry about the present.
The result is crimes like this people read about and say "how can they be so stupid they didn't think they'd get caught".
It worked in the moment, and a month later to someone with this much stress is a lifetime away.
This effect is responsible for a lot of our crime. And we can get rid of it by actually having a safety net so people don't get in the trap of only worrying about today.
1Why do we still have bail?
1To keep the poors from using their lack of wealth to flee from prosecution.
1To keep workers in jail so even the threat of unjust prosecution ruins their lives. Miss work for a week because police arrested you for no reason? Likely fired. A month or three awaiting trial? Bye house.
