Again, I agree the law is unjust in some ways! Many forms of wage theft ought to be crimes.
What doesn't make sense to me is the implication that decriminalizing petty theft would make the law more just. If people go around stealing $5 all the time, Walmart can absorb that loss - the guy who's flat broke until his paycheck this Friday can't.
