   Well in my experience, the majority of people who are poor and   
   unemployed DO resort to crime. Its usually extremely petty, like not   
   taxing MOTing or insuring a car, or shoplifting, or dealing a few ounces   
   of the good stuff on the estate, or trading in stolen goods.   
      
   Basically opportunistic crime.   
   Then a lot are also gaming the social security system.  Whatever it   
   takes to get by.   
      
   But for real crime, you need a knight. All the knights I have met or   
   known of were criminals - usually massive frauds on the public, dodgy   
   companies, or sex crimes.   
      
   If you see sir Somecunt OrOther on a companies letterhead, steer well clear.
