Look at it from this angle:
The carts are personal property. When you don’t return them, that’s theft. When you don’t return them properly, that’s miscoduct.
Americans have been doing this for an eternity, so they just hired a cart guy and called it a day. You can’t put the entire country in the courts. It’s culture at that point.
Englishpeople didn’t and so it became reasonable to just make it a law for the few idiots who think they can do what they want. No cart guy required. This is how most laws are made. Traffic laws were once a good example.
I can’t find anything on the claim england has laws for this. Link?
The carts are not leaving the property of the store, which includes the lot, so that argument unfortunately also doesn’t fly. I’m not familiar with any stores big enough to have carts but which don’t have their own lots (or are the majority owner of the lot).
