People treated as criminals, become criminal!
What an indictment of government policies:
Before all the crazy new laws designed to regulate every trivial aspect of daily life;
The growth of snooping & surveillance;
The suspicion & contempt that "officials" & politicians have for ordinary people - the people who actually pay their inflated salaries & benefits:
Before all that, ordinary people respected ordinary laws!
Most people avoided doing wicked things... because those things were wicked.
Criminal activities have always produced criminal rewards, but didn't attract ordinary people.
According to this article, we're all now easily tempted into criminal activity.
Perhaps government and officialdom should accept the blame for wrecking society and reverse their recent policies?
