If I owned a store, my cashiers would be held accountable for looking in the cart and on the bottom of the cart. The Walmart here has a huge sign on the register taht says "RING BOTTOM OF CART FIRST." If that cashier can not read those letters and can not do what is being told by management then they are the ones with the issues.
IMHO, I think that you don't like Wal-Mart and don't really care about being and ethical and moral person when it pertains to Wal-Mart. IMHO, you like many are of the mindset that Wal-Mart is evil/bad and should be punished. But, hey, that's just my opinion.

Oh, and the cashiers at Wal-Mart are held accountable, as are the majority of cashiers at retailers.
However, you didn't address the issue of would you want to set the example for your child of walking out of a store w/ merchandise you didn't pay for. Where is the personal responsibility? A lie by omission is still a lie!
(for example: You don't ask your husband/SO if they are having an affair, but they are---they just failed to tell you. Does it make it any better? Shouldn't you have seen the warning signs? I mean if you don't know what's going on within your own marriage, isn't it partly your fault that their is an affair going on? That's what your logic and reasoning seem to suggest. If you are too lazy or dumb to keep up with your marriage, and your SO/husband cheats....well, you shouldn't have been so lazy or dumb. **DISCLAIMER** this is not how I feel about cheating/affairs, just using as an example***DISCLAIMER***

ETA: You contradicted yourself. The cake wasn't on the bottom of the cart, but you keep harping on the "ring bottom of cart first"...
