Most would say the same of politicians and elites who are constantly robbing us. Worryingly, in public discourse, it’s expected and accepted that they will do so.

So, is it /really/ just the poor crime that creates this culture?

I agree that it goes both ways. Fixing one should help fix the other. It's easier to start small.

It takes significantly more effort to constantly catch hundreds of small time unknown criminals versus the handfuls of elites in the public limelight or government positions.
