"Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime."

Until a thief steals the mans fishing pole. Instead of fishing and becoming more prosperous, the man taught to fish will have to make or buy a new pole. Either way, crime has made him a little bit poorer.

You've obviously been a victim of crime time and time again which has resulted in your own perceived poverty, so rest assured, we GET it.

And just so you don't think I'm being rude by not responding to the numerous future "poverty is only caused by crime" examples you'll feel compelled to send me, I'll say, "Buh-Bye, Now!"
