Eveytime, I watch the news, I always heard heard and see that there are plenty of theifs nowadays. they steal the things of the others i order them to survive. Do you think it is a sign of poverty that the people are stealing because they have no choice? Or, they steal because they don't want to work and encounter problems. they don't want a hassle life.

I am with you on this one. I too have been a victim way too many times especially at times true need in my life. So when someone gets caught they must pay for their errors.

The most people are stealing because of poverty. They are hungry. They need money to pay off bills. This kind of stealing is getting worse and worse. But the governments don't want to see this. Poverty makes people steal no matter who you are or what religion you have. When you are needy, you will steal. There are also people who steal for the kick. They just love to get away with it. These people are sick, proven by doctors. This is a sickness of the brain. They can't help it.

There is absolutely no excuse for stealing. I rather beg then steal. Poverty causes people to resort to so many things but not entirely because they are poor as the rich do so as well. It is greed, the color green seems to light up someones way of thinking I suppose.

Hmm.. I assume that people would steal from others due to the fact that they cannot afford the items from that particular civillian they are pursuing. Most of the time when new items come out, there are those who buy them and sometimes show them off in public to their friends or whatnot. It's a bad idea to flash your items to others since they would get jealous. Maybe, they need to steal from others since they are making profit from what they've stolen. They could sell it to the blackmarket and make profit out of it. Many possibilities..
