January 11, 2021

When you're finished loading the groceries into your vehicle, what do you do with the shopping cart?

the shopping cart theory

A theory that's circulating on social media proposes that a person's moral character can be determined by what they choose to do with their shopping cart.

This is what the author of "The Shopping Cart Theory" wrote:

"The shopping cart is the ultimate litmus test for whether a person is capable of self-governing, the post states.

To return the shopping cart is an easy, convenient task and one which we all recognize as the correct, appropriate thing to do. To return the shopping cart is objectively right. There are no situations other than dire emergencies in which a person is not able to return their cart.

Simultaneously, it is not illegal to abandon your shopping cart. Therefore the shopping cart presents itself as the apex example of whether a person will do what is right without being forced to do it.

No one will punish you for not returning the shopping cart, no one will fine you, or kill you for not returning the shopping cart, you gain nothing by returning the shopping cart.

You must return the shopping cart out of the goodness of your own heart. You must return the shopping cart because it is the right thing to do. Because it is correct.

A person who is unable to do this is no better than an animal, an absolute savage who can only be made to do what is right by threatening them with a law and the force that stands behind it.

The Shopping Cart is what determines whether a person is a good or bad member of society."

So, which are you?
