Unemployed commit most of the crime? Anyone ever hear of white collar...corporate crime? Probably not, since it gets much less media exposure than street crime...wonder why? I was talking about street crime. I think there are more street crime then white collar crime in terms of number of criminals and number of incidents (although maybe not in terms of $). Even if this isn't true I don't think most white collar criminals make anything close to minimum wage so its not really aplicable to the "living wage" debate. Tim
