Do the sketchy things of poor people affect as much other people as the sketchy of rich?

Who more often jail time for sketchy things? Poor or rich?

Sure. Poor people ruin millions of families every year with pointless violent robberies, sexual assaults in back alleys, and worse.

Does anyone of sound mind make it a class issue? Of course not. It would make about as much sense as blaming every rich person for random white collar crimes.

Anyone who argues it is a class issue is not of sound mind?

Those who disagree with you are crazy.

Right.

Says one vain but ultimately useless meat suit whose food and shelter the rest of us don't have to concern ourselves with because it's so inconsequential an existence it props nothing important up.

Ah it's people like you that provide the most entertainment in life. Watching you shill delusions about your economic achievements in a physical reality that doesn't care you exist and a social system that provides no assurances your efforts today will afford you food and shelter in the future.

As the other 8 billion on the planet while you live don't notice you exist.

But you're of sound mind; a privilege you give yourself to begin with. Lol. Sad.

What is the per capita of ruined lives per poor people?

If they get caught, do they get jail time or a fine?

How many poor people do you need to get the same number of victims compared to the sketchy things of rich people?

What’s your contention? If the per capita incidences of either rich or poor people ruining families is a worse number, then what’s the implication?

That whatever group has a worse impact should be “gotten rid of”? What if poor people are worse? You’d abandon that line of thinking entirely, I imagine.

What’s next? If people with red cars are statistically more likely to commit crimes we should round them up as long as you don’t personally have a red car?

Are we talking drug gangs as poor? Because the foot soldiers sure are.
The foot soldiers are part of the sketchy things of rich drug lords
I would blame those on the middle class cocaine users who fund the drug gangs.
