My Dad tried to argue "it creates jobs".

He really didn't want to accept that trolley pushers aren't given more time to fetch the carts.

All it does is make the job harder.

Omg I bitched out these two ladies at the theater many years ago. Left a massive mess of popcorn, left drinks, everything. I asked if they were going to leave it, they said they're helping the theater employees keep their jobs. I followed the bitches out of the theater and called them out in front of an employee cleaning another theater. Grown ass women. I was getting loud, they ran into the women's restroom to avoid me, I left after that. Fucking hate people.

It doesn't create any new jobs. It just creates a task the already employed people at the store need to deal with. Walmart claims they have dedicsted cart wranglers, but every store I have worked at just made CAP go out and do it during lulls in other tasks.

I know they definitely used to, since I was one. No idea anymore, since I haven't shopped there since I quit.
