The takeaway here should be that poverty creates crime.
It's always been an absolute and complete source of bafflement to me how many people don't seem to get this. I'm a (relatively) high earner and have no hesitation voting for the most left wing candidate on the ballot, because I think it represents good value to pay a few extra percent in tax to not have to be scared walking down the street or to keep checking my home security cameras. What's the point having wealth if I'm constantly having to protect it?
