Topic: World moving to stage when only crime is to be poor (Read 117 times)

Every fine and fee by a government is a signal that they are not a legitimate government. These fines and fees do not go to the alleged victims of any wrong, but rather to line the personal pockets of bureaucrats. Modern government of course is all about money collection, not about governance or civilization. While restitution of justice does involve paying people back with money, that is generally a civil matter, not a criminal matter. There is no place for fines and fees in government. There is also no place to STEAL someone's land because they didn't pay a tax on it. If someone's land is taxed, that is a form of rent. Taxation is a form of theft, extortion, and slavery. People tax other people because they want to force other people to give them money but buy something they want. That is identical to the definition of theft by extortion. That is clearly also a form of slavery whereby you are forced to work for other people whether you want to or not.

The reason we have this system is corrupted moral values at the level of society as a whole. If a fine or fee is being levied when it actually deserves to be, then the money should HAVE to go to actual victims of the wrong, and is otherwise not only stealing but stealing from victims of violence! Its no different than me going to find handicapped people in specific to rob from and declaring myself immune as a good guy because I'm "the government" even though I'm doing something worse than what home robbers do.

I personally advocate to fix this by a Cooperative Republic system as linked to in my signature.

The world is surely divided into the rich and poor. The rich are treated well by the people and the government. But I am saddened that money can get you a favorable judgment in court. Recently in my country, an underaged boy was sentenced to death for stealing fowls and some eggs. Just because his parents were too poor to pay a bribe of about $30, this seventeen-year-old boy spent more than a decade on death row until his case got public attention this year.

There have been cases where the police replaced rich criminals with innocent people in prison. They simply go to the street, arrest anybody, claim they are criminals, release a convict, and replace them with an innocent individual. A politician who stole millions of dollars gets a bail condition of some thousand dollars, while a poor man's bail condition is so high that he would end up spending his entire life in prison. The world system is encouraging people to do anything illegally to get rich because money is now a formidable defense.       

Poverty degrades people, it can rob people of their dignity because they won't be taken seriously as a result of their poverty. So it seems like it's a crime to be poor because rich people can afford good lawyers and get away with crimes but a poor person might not get justice due to their lack of money to get good lawyers to stand for them. I don't know about developed countries but in most developing countries poor people will be sentenced to prison for unserious crimes but the rich will commit far more serious crimes and they will get away with it. So some people says that if you want to steal let it be huge so that you can bribe and get away with the crime, instead of stealing small and face the full weight of the law.

There is one thing to consider, the United States of America is said to be both the leading country of western culture and civilization as we know it and at the same time, the country/society one seems to be able to pay one's way out of problems. So if one is from the USA or from the West, then it certainly applies money is more important than ever to have a successful life and avoid certain problems.

Perhaps the biggest evidence in favor of what you are saying is how in the USA they are trying to pass laws against the homeless, to criminalize to sleep in public areas and such things... So yeah, if Trump's administration happens to be radical enough, we could see American society to start criminalize poverty 

Poverty in the 21st century is a big crime. I mean it's so disgusting and unappealing. Imagine a society where we worship people just because they are rich then treat a poor or average person as though they don't have the right to live. This very act has lured people into all sorts of evil and wicked practices all in the name of meeting up the standards the we did set for ourselves. One thing I no for sure is that as long as this remains the mindset of people living in the era they will never understand what it means to find genuine relationship, business partners and associates

Not everyone is privileged to know they can get rich through acquiring a skill and rendering them to people in exchange for money and value. Also not everyone has that patience to learn a new skill that can transform their status. Some people can be so impatient to a point where they are ready to do anything dirty just to make sure poverty is no longer associated with them but if this trend should escalate are we sure we all will live to tell the story.

Life is a struggle and you have to fight, otherwise there is no way to survive. It's getting harder every year.

This generation is the most easiest generation to become a rich man. I mean there are hundreds of things to do to become a rich person. Before now you have to go to high institutions to study professional courses in order to be gainfully employed and become rich. But today even someone who has not gone to any tertiary instruction can get some set of skills, master them and becomes a rich man. I think this is the reason why there's so much expectations that everyone should become rich. I think that time, it won't be a crime to be poor, but poverty will be equal to laziness.

It's truly sad how financial status has become a determining factor in how people are treated and accepted in society. This emphasis on wealth has led some young people to engage in illegal activities to acquire money and gain influence. People go into rituals, scams, and robberies just to make money so they can have a voice. That's why some people now use the term "the end justifies the means," since you can't be heard when you're poor.

The inequality in the justice system is also alarming. When a poor person commits a crime, they're often sentenced to death or given severe punishment. In contrast, when a rich person commits a crime, we barely even hear about it, and when we do, the case is often closed quickly. . Perhaps the poor could be given the opportunity to work to pay for their crimes, especially in cases where they stole food or other essential items.

When people's basic needs are met, and they're no longer struggling with hunger, they're less likely to engage in criminal activity. I hope that governments can create job opportunities and make it easier for people to succeed in society. I just pray the world will move in a positive direction as time goes on.

Hasn't it always been like this? If you have money you are worthy and respected, but if you don't, you mean nothing for the society. The racism agenda is just a scarecrow to remove the focus from reality, which is the discrimination against those who don't have money and influence inside society.

As you said, it's not about race or nation. Even in the past it wasn't about it, since europeans went to Africa and negotiated African slaves with another Africans. They didn't go there to hunt down slaves. They purchased them, therefore we can conclude they respected the wealthy locals who possessed slaves and had a diplomatic relationship with them.

Others claim Asians are discriminated in West. At same time, chineses own large portions of the industry in Western world, therefore once again we can conclude they are respected and accepted, since they have money.

Meanwhile, a western citizen who don't have financial power and influence, inside his native country, will worth less than one of the foreigners mentioned above. It's all about money and network of contacts. But that is the kind of discussion you don't see on the media... For them it's more interesting to tilt at windmills.

Yeah we now live in a world where poor people are sense to be susceptible to committing crime due to their social status which has made them without mortality want to do anything just to have some peicemeal or anything for survival to the next day.

But on the other hand, not all people are bad, there are a whole lot of them that works legitimately to earn a good living. And it's no crime either to be poor, nobody wants to be poor so it's no fault of anyone being poor. It only becomes a fault if that individual decides to remain poor by not trying at all to scale the ranks.

Your biggest Crime is to be poor.
You can do all kind of things if large money involved the bigger the better but one thing you should avoid is that you don't have money.
World goes more in this stage where poverty=criminal and not have much money you also could be criminal you can be treated as criminal or viewed as criminal.

The example: person who do commit some fraud or stealing money get better treatment then person who don't declare their income correct for taxes IRS will hunt you down even If you go another countries or If you own money the debt for banks or loan lenders you can be treated like criminal.

Conclusion=society start giving you extra punishment If you don't have money.
It's not like how to support or give some jobs to them or maybe help them to make their dreams or education but rather just giving hard time and labeling you as poor so you have even harder to get anything.
Discrimination not anymore by race or nation but it's by wealth only and it get bigger and bigger.
So it's like If you are poor you better don't appear anywhere just disapeare because first everybody see your money and then they look what kind of person are you.
