In time you will all realize stealing is wrong no matter how tempting, with age you realize this. And if you don't like the prices of what they are charging at the LFS then find it elsewhere or ask if they will do a bargin or trade. Some smaller LFS will barter. I too have had people mis mark fish in the bag, I always point it out weather it is to my benefit or theirs...it's just the right thing to do. It will make you feel better..just like holding a door open for someone who has his hands full, in turn you hope they will do something nice for someone else and then so on. Some day you maybe on the other end of it...now you wouldn't want someone stealing from you...would you? Ok I'm done...

Insurance isnt liable for everything
Yes many did have this coverage and the insurance companies still wont pay. Recently there was a documentary on CNN about this. Another point, take auto insurance. How in the world does a credit rating reflect the way someone drives? Yet insurance companies are quick to capitalize on this as an excuse to charge people more. What if someones credit was destroyed by a divorce or identity theft. How does this make them more of a risk? There is no correlation.

Id have to agree, if they had the coverage and they arent receiving payments complaints should be filed and lawyers should be contacted , and charging somebody a higher rate base on credit score is messed up , it should be based on driving record , just like health insurance is based on past health

I have been tempted a few times to take stuff. Such as garlic, medications, and anything that are in bottles. but before I setup my tank and made a promise that everything in this tank I would either of have bought it or got it someway. I wouldn't steal it or have a family member help me out with the cash. EVERYTHING IN MY TANK, I HAD TO WORK FOR IT. I guess I'm fortunate.

stealing is bad wether it is a piece of gum or a car. I agree prices are way to high, but it is the fault of the thieves. I have a business and was ripped off for over 10,000.00 in tools. I can't do my work without my tools. the person that took the tools was caught, but that didn't help matters when I was out of work for a week wondering how I was going to replace the tools I had lost. I go to my lfs and on many ocasions have been in the store myself. I have never had the thoughts of stealing from them. I know what it is like to have your livelyhood taken from you. It's not fun! It's not even funny to think that way! Stealing is a complete loosers game.
Just remember every time you do something wrong, somewhere or sometime it will come back to bit you. and usually it bits harder when it comes back around. I speak from experiance. I was a thief when I was a teenager and was caught. everyone in the town I lived in found out that I was stealing things. If I ever went to there homes I would be forced to put my hands in my back pockets and sit on the floor the whole time I was there. After that I made a promise to myself I would never steal and feel like that again. So I say that anyone caught stealing get what the deserve!!!!!
