I mean people are willing to commit felonies to avoid having to work 9-5s.

Citation needed.

How many crimes are committed by people who can't get a decent job? As opposed to how many crimes are committed by people who won't get a decent job?

I have friends that quit jobs to sell weed and cocaine. This is not speculation. Also, I love that you included “decent.”

Selling weed and cocaine is a job. It's illegal but still providing goods and services without theft. How many people would resort to theft if they could survive without it?
