Poverty and Crime

Poverty as a scapegoat for committing crimes is overrated. That also discriminates the poor as being by situation the only potential criminals (everyone are potential criminals).

Many sensational crimes involving fortunes to the tune of billions of dollars have been committed in corporate and government worlds by those who will not qualify to our common definition of poverty. If we want to point a finger to the cause of crime, that finger  must be directed to the heart of every man, where lies the unseen evil that ferments schemes to take other peoples' lives and properties against their will.
