I feel that it's an institutional problem in the U.S. Leaving cultural issues aside, if people were being taken care of, they would less likely have such an antagonistic relationship with society(which includes government, businesses, companies, other people, etc) where they could justify fare evasion and other "small" crimes. Ideally, people should understand they are ultimately stealing from themselves and hurting themselves when they do things like litter or steal. Because if they pay taxes in any shape or form, that's partially their money that's going to be used to fix it. Unfortunately, in the U.S., for many it feels like the taxes they pay either never go back to them in the form of services and infrastructure that benefits them or is out right used to exploit or hurt them.
