If you're laundering money, and really amateur about it, the key is to have no one else have access to the POS so then there's no one with conclusive proof that the totals are different at the end of the day.

Also note that he had the food taken back thrown away. He probably was charging up a new on the register and laundering the dirty cash in that way. At least if I was a total amateur at laundering but had a great income as something illegal, that's what I'd do.

I'm an Economist. We need to take out the demand for escaping.

Make a prison that rehabilitates and educates, one that prisoners are taught how to become part of society.

I live at north/clybourn. For congress, I'm slotted into the 5th district, which mostly is the far northwest side of the city, for ward alderman, I'm somehow lumped into the 2nd which is river north... WTF

But I did get in this conversation the other day, there's quite a bit of evidence that Republicans, nationwide, are benefiting from gerrymandering more than Democrats. But, I agree, if Sanders really is independent and more for the people than the party, he should be willing cast stones at both

I think this is a perfectly acceptable response. Frankly, it's weak but you're being asked to be accountable for the entire food industry. That's just not fair. I would think that yes, there have been scandals in the food industry just like there have been in every industry in the world. There will be people that are lazy, incompetent, or just plain evil. The evil is rare, but you do have people who are negligent and incompetent which leads to negligence.

The final product is that 99% of everything I've ever eaten was created by someone who wanted to make food for someone to eat and be happy. The other 1% has been people who have gotten me sick since due to negligence, incompetence, or lazyness, even evil, they served me meat that was past its prime.

That's life folks. Now, that's not to say we should accept it and move on. Notice we're often prosecuting individuals since these seem to be the one-offs and exceptions to the rule, not the whole.
