A Nebraska woman allegedly found a lucrative quirk at a gas station pump — double-swipe the rewards card and get free gas!
Unfortunately for her, you can’t do that, prosecutors said. The 45-year-old woman was arrested March 6 and faces felony theft charges accusing her of a crime that cost the gas station nearly $28,000.
Prosecutors say the woman exploited the system over a period of several months. Police learned of the problem in October when the loss-prevention manager at Bosselman Enterprises reported that the company’s Pump & Pantry in Lincoln had been scammed.
My entire argument is that we have misplaced priorities. In my lifetime the airlines got two bailouts, the auto industry got two bailouts, the banks got 3 bailouts, and a whole fuckton of fake GOP connected companies got Covid money.
We are talking about a trillion fucking dollars if you add it all up and adjust for inflation. A trillion fucking dollars stolen from us. That is the priority, not someone who got a discount on gasoline by using a rewards card.
When I see everyone C level at Bane Capital, Haliburton, American Airlines, Goldman, GM, and those that worked at Sterns behind bars then I will worry about this lady. The law should bind those at the top more than those at the bottom.
You can also arrest Thomas and Alito while you are at it for taking bribes.
