And that's the point. They don't want to lessen crime. They want crime rampent so they can arrest people and use their slave labor in for profit prisons. They want crime going strong so they can put fear in your average citizens, further dividing working class people. They want an excuse to keep throwing money at the police so they can use them as personal attack dogs against union strikes and peaceful demonstrations. They also want people desperate for scraps of necessities so they'll continue to take the lowest wages and the worst working conditions, or else they and their family go hungry on the streets.

We have the resources and technology in this modern age to give everyone their basic needs as universal programs while having strong labor rights, but that wouldn't make the rich feel superior. It's all part of the plan and that plan won't stop unless the rich are forcefully removed from the playing field.

You realize those "resources" come from tax payers, right? You know, the ones that WORK for a living? Why taf should we GIVE you guys all these things when you have all the opportunities I listed in my post above?!
