Tokyo, Japan with a population of around thirteen million people is one of the largest cities in the world as well as one of the safest.  Many stores in Tokyo have their merchandise on the sidewalk in front of their stores unattended.  Thievery is not a problem in Japan.  

Contrast that with the USA.  At a large home improvement store in Texas heavy picnic tables on display outside the store are secured with thick cables and padlocks.  The same security for other outside display items such as lawn mowers, riding mowers, and lawn chairs.  

Noticeable at a nearby large pharmaceutical store liquid laundry soap in large containers have alarms attached to them.  America the honest?  Hardly.
