So, let me get this straight.
So, Bill Gates quits his schooling to start Microsoft. Invested his savings
into the venture. Worked hard day and night to perfect his software. Works
long days to market his software. Used his skill and charisma to win an
account with IBM, gets lucky and makes a Billion. But it did not stopped
there. He worked long hours at Microsoft. Poured his heart out. Exhausted
every skill. Worked very hard to build a credible software company,
outcompeting every other competitor. Now, he is harvesting the fruits of
his labor, and some idiot comes along and says he is not working hard, and
wants to redistribute his money hard earned thru charisma, luck and hard
work.
Yeah, that's right, Bill Gates DID NOT work hard for his money. OK ....
That's why I despise socialists and communists. They just want to steal the
fruits of your labor. It's a retrograde and thieving philosophy hatched out
of the minds of lazy bums.

How does one measure "hard work"?
How much harder does Bill Gates work in comparison to someone who
works two jobs at minimum wage?
Do you seriously he imagine he works 100 times harder if his income is
100 times greater?
Do you believe a man with backhoe works 100 times harder than a man with
shovel?

This idea that poverty is the root cause of criminality is at best naive

hard for their income and redistribute it to lazy bums will not cure
sociatal ills. You are smarter than to believe in that solution.
Let's take a real life example. The United States has more felons and
criminals on a per capita basis than any other country in the world,
including such 4th world countries like the Philippines who are poverty
stricken to the core. The United States is flushed in food and resources
and conveniences, and yet manage to produce more criminals and felons
than
any other country. Please, I would like to hear your explanation why the
US
has more criminals than the Philippines (on a per capita basis).

PS. The root cause of crime is not poverty. but rather the inherent sin
and
rebellion in the hearts of a glutonous, rebellious and lazy society.

I would think that only way to combat this problem is to eliminate
poverty
from the society. About 95% of the criminality is due to unjust
distribution
of wealth. This is not that individual humans would resort into
criminality
if they fail to find job due to high unemployment rates, but because
children are crown in the conditions where no children should be allowed
to
live.
Best way to eliminate poverty is to set zero income level for each
individuals into 1000-2000 dollars per month. This can be done quite
easily
by distributing income more justly. When there is no scarcity of the
basic
needs, there won't be breeding grounds for violent gangs and violent
larger
scale religions, because every child will get a proper and free
education.
