BreakAtmo posted:Oh, I thoroughly agree that these crimes are largely caused by issues with how societies works and how we treat each other. My intention was to find whether people here thought stealing due to desperation (caused by the societal issues you brought up) was more common than stealing due to selfishness or vice-versa - I know that the question is larger than that. As I said, I do believe it's something a great many people are forced into, and I tend to roll my eyes when someone tries to paint all thieves as "Evil Criminals Who Want To Take What YOU WORKED SO HARD FOR". There are a lot of different kinds of crime. Obviously Bernie Madoff was not motivated by a desire to feed his children.

Sure, but people seem generally more terrified of some desperate addict breaking your car window to steal a stereo than a gang of highly paid criminals evaporating your retirement to some secret PO box in Aruba.
