The largest type theft done in the United States, by far, for decades, is wage theft. In terms of dollars stolen.
All other forms of serious crime have dramatically fallen since the 90's per Capita. Some are at 1/3 the rate they were then. (FBI UCR)
remember that next time you see a headline or politician speak about crime.
We are safer, doing less crime to each other, and seeing more prison population than ever before.
While corporations crush us illegally and face no consequences.

The sentences are often ridiculously long for the offense. The conditions are generally poor and often torturous. Too little is done to reincorporate the formerly incarcerated into society.
