Friend of money owas several McDonald’s and did not get where he is by being stupid. He told me that from his experience most people turn to crime because they are lazy. Even if they they don’t commit more crimes they don’t work very hard either.
I wholly disagree with that. As an ex-cop, ex security manager for a lot of state agencies, department store chains, trucking companies, etc. when I catch and prosecute someone, I have always asked the perp, “ Why did you do this? You had a job and things could have worked out.” Every time, the answer was “Because I can.” These people were not lazy, they just sought to get over on somebody, anybody and screwed themselves. Psychology, I guess.
