@animeirl @matrix violent crime and poverty are mainly linked to disparity and so if there's no disparity there's no crime, it's not just being poor it's being poor right next to people who are rich and being very pissed off about that. It's like the monkeys and the grapes and cucumbers, a monkey will accept a cucumber as payment for a task in a cage next to another monkey who's accepting a cucumber as payment for a task, but as soon as one monkey receives a grape the other monkey will no longer accept its cucumber as payment it will freak the fuck out and refuse, it'll throw the cucumber back, it'll say fuck you because it's not fair.

And the US has so many people in prison because they arrest people for drug crimes on an unprecedented scale although that's been kind of slowing down because the dumb fucks have realized that they were being retarded.
