Some people have the morals that stealing from individuals is wrong, but stealing from a store, or a corporation is justified neutral
 
     
 
Stealing from other people is never justifiable. Stealing from Wal-Mart is justifiable because Wal-Mart is not person. It's just a huge corporate beast that needs to be slain. And because the employees there don't care about anything.

The Only Way Something Someone Does Is Immoral Is If It Is Outside Of Their Own Moral Capacity. If They Do Not Find It Immoral, It Is Not Immoral.

Perhaps in a society where all is given freely, where there is no concept of ownership of 'things', where all needs are met.

Perhaps in a society like that, you wouldn't see thievery.

That's all I have to say.. stare
     
While I do see sorts of stealing justifiable, but that is mostly in a business/military basis. As for what you are talking about my strong sense of justice says no there is no justifiable reason to steal. Especially in America where if you can't support yourself the government will do it for you.

So discuss this: When can stealing someone's property actually be justified?

When it's necessary for my survival.


But what if it interferes with my survival?

I'm more important than you.
     
Ratreoz: God, why do people not worship Me?
God: People are stupid. You know that.
Ratreoz: Yes. I just don't see it as a valid excuse.
It depends on the story of your life.

One could be wronged by the authorities, leading to being shunned by corporations and cast out by his fellow man.

A giant business could be beating the population with a big stick and quenching every honest alternative.

My opinion: In this case, stealing is more than justified, it's a ******** obligation.
