That is a good thing. Spread the wealth. Reducing poverty, reduces crime. Everyone prospers. Socialism FTW.

Poor people only commit crimes because they have no money and are forgotten by society. Give everyone a fair go.

 

 

No, no one prospers, but everyone lives an ok life. That's the problem with Socialism. You can' fall too far, but you can't rise to high. Some people don't see why that's a bad thing.

And if your logic was right, rich people would never commit crimes.

I actually think poor people commit more crimes because things hold no value to them. The more you give to a people, and the less they earn it, the less they value it (as they should, because it has less value). Give people homes, and what do they care about another mans home?

The way to keep crime high, is more social programs, not less.

Giving free money to the poor doesn't just make them not poor.  The poor we will always have.

It's not like the socialists countries doesn't have the poor - they do.  And for i remember, the percentage was the same.

The percentage of the poor in the U.S. before the welfare program and after are about the same.

I would think if the gov't takes more money away from the rich, less people they can afford to pay thus there weren't be less poor, but less rich.

I've never been hired for work and paid by people who don't have a lot of money.
