- elif 11y agoYou can give any number of asterisked replies about how every criminal is different and motivated differently... and you can attempt to take the following argument to its extremes to say that you can never really get rid of theft. Those may both be true, but focusing on the caveats is a diversion from a fundamental societal issue. Because we've chosen to use technology for isolated personal enrichment instead of overall humanitarian benefit, we are advancing at a quickening pace toward wealth disparity. Additionally, we've created a religion out of dollars that holds selfishness as a virtue. It should surprise no one that the selfish actors we've created (and culturally glorified) also behave selfishly when their backs are against the wall.
