Of course. But nobody is doing hit and runs so they can make a living.

They don't do the hit to make a living, but they might commit the run to continue doing so.

Sure, but that has nothing to do with making a living or basic income so I fail to see the point of discussing that particular crime.

When I said "Crime is caused more by envy", I was not making an absolute statement about all kinds of crime.
