Which poorest people? Poor countries are not criminal outposts. That's a myth that wealth correlates with crime.

London

study from 2011

Edit: Also, you do realise that a poorer country relative a another still has its own subset of poor people and wealthy people. It’s not like a poor country is only poor people. Inequality is everywhere.

These studies are irrelevant as they don't cover crime worldwide. They are just taking bull crap out of their ass.

You could do the same for each country.

There is no world crime per se. International crimes tend to be people trafficking and things more serious.

The crimes this thread is discussing are more related to crimes of necessity.

I must say I do like all your rejections of my argument without providing an argument yourself. Due to the one sided nature if this I’d prefer not to converse any longer.

Have a great day all the same buddy.
