I am social democrat, and as such I am for all people to have living wages.. (and I am actually proponent of basic income and progressive taxes) However, checkout assistants are not very well paid and the job is horrible (it's not the worst, arguably, but could be improved). I do not however feel responsible for the bad moral decisions of other people. My action in itself doesn't increase profits of the wealthy, it's actions of other people. These people need to be made socially responsible (for example via progressive taxation), not me.
