I have no problem with a person stealing a loaf of bread....
Or do I? If a person steals bread to feed his hungry family, does that justify the stealing? Does stealing the bread only to sell it make it a theft. Does walking into a bank and withdrawing $65K that was put into your account really mean stealing. Some would say that there is NO difference then working in a factory for $15/hr or doing a crime that pays an average of $15/hr. Crime can be classified as just another form of work. Within a factory, a beam may fall putting you out of work, where as a criminal may get caught and go to jail. Is it the nature of crime that determines what a crime is... or just the degree of suffering a victim must go through. Rest assurered, any stealing is a crime. One need only ask this question:
"Does the crime justify the time"

Now excuse me as I 'steal' some more software Appz & MP3's
