They do this so they don't have to pay staff to return carts, one of many reasons Aldi is so cheap.

"Cart returner" is not a job. It's a thing regular employees have to do because some folks choose to be lazy. If everybody would return their carts, these employees would simply work on other shit in the store like cleaning or re-arranging misplaced items. Leaving the cart does not create jobs, it makes existing jobs more tedious.
