Japan's Bus Driver Loses $84K Pension Over $7 Theft—Is It Fair?

A Japanese bus driver with three decades of service faces an unbelievable fate after being stripped of his $84,000 pension for stealing just $7—an ironic commentary on proportional justice in absurdity.
Kyoto’s transit agency doubled down, insisting the driver’s $7 theft—caught on dashcam—risked eroding public trust in city buses. Despite a brief legal reprieve, Japan’s Supreme Court sided with “zero tolerance,” fueling debate on workplace scandals and viral justice.
