As a society you get results in where your effort is.BS. Belief in this lie is a HUGE part of the societal decline we're seeing in the West. I see that attitude as condescending and rather insulting to poor people.
There are plenty of poor people who aren't criminals, and no shortage at all of wealthy criminals, either. Washington DC is full of the latter.
You have it completely backwards. Crime is one of biggest drivers of poverty.
If there are economics opportunity people are less likely to do crime. Most people would like to get money legitimately if possible.
If you have effective policing and crime prevention it will show up in lower crime statistics.
Criminals are less likely to commit crimes if they know high chances they will get caught.
Singapore police force here reacts very quickly to violent crimes or theft or sexual assaults.
But in comparison much less resources is on traffic rules enforcement. If you park your car illegally out of convenience there is less five percent chance you get a ticket.
When me and my friends were driving in Brisbane Australia we got a ticket at night immediately for our rented vehicles parked in the wrong place in the later afternoon (mainly due to not knowing where to park correctly). Our car even got stopped once by a police car for beating the right light once. This all happened in ten days seems like they have 24-7 manpower watching any possible traffic violations.
Crime is a form a behavior by choice. Training human beings are somewhat like training animals. In a circus if the animal keeps getting smacked for having the wrong moves they will get it right eventually.
