I hate this argument. If i park by a cart at the back of the parking lot I’m going to do exactly what my mother raised me to do and put it back where i found it.
Returning the cart and not littering are the two big indicators of not being a shit person.
I do those things & also clean public restrooms because they’re usually a mess when I go in there, so make it mess-free for the next person who goes in after me. And a certain beach I frequent is notorious for trash so before I can enjoy the beach, I spend about an hour with latex gloves & a trash bag & restore the beach to its undefiled state. No one knows I do these things, no one cares, and nobody pays me for being a secret janitor.
I used to return my cart to the corral, but now I walk it over to the “reserved for law enforcement” spot and leave it there.

All Carts Are Bastards
Well done for not being a blight on society.
Relatedly, as an admin of c/books, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention a book here.
If you enjoyed the TV show The Good Place, and humorous books about moral philosophy, Mike Schur (the showrunner) covers this in How to be Perfect.

The shopping cart theoryThank you for your service.
It genuinely does. Almost all of us are downright mediocre but all we need to be is a decent person and that’s good enough.
Only when shopping online though.
At my local CostCo, there is a pathway that cuts across each row of parking spots. At various points along this path are the cart returns. The path is constantly full of carts, meaning that you can’t get to the cart returns. I get way too bent out shape about his every time I go.
Whenever I go to Costco when I’m done shopping I sometimes spend up to a half hour putting carts away, the ones that are most obnoxiously blocking parking spots & pedestrians.
