If you think that someone "stealing" 30 chicken nuggets from a company worth over 200 billion dollars is somehow an indication that they must also treat their loved ones poorly, you're thinking far too simply about the complexity of human motivation. Amazingly, exploiting soulless corporations and hurting people are completely unrelated behaviors.
It's probably a franchisee who isn't a billionaire. More than likely you're stealing from someone who only has tens of millions.
(I think it's 2-3 million to start a fast food joint.)
I'm not sure which side of the debate this is meant to support.
I do believe McDonald's pays back their franchisee for promos like this, they're essentially "Manufacturers coupons" (When you use a manufacturer coupon, the retailer can reclaim their cost of the merchandise with them)
