"It's a waste of effort to try to figure out why people steal stuff, there's just no logical reason for it..."
People steal stuff because they don't want to pay for it. Trying to see the criminal's side of the equation is like trying to negotiate with terrorists or trying to talk a shark out of biting your leg off. Meth (and drugs in general) has been, is, and will be the downfall of this country. It is politically incorrect to hold drug addicts and recreational drug users responsible for the border wars, drug cartels, and murders that occur to keep our population steadily supplied with drugs. Meth is particulary bad...worse than Heroin when it comes to health issues, crime, and hospital bills you and I pay in medical insurance increases in order to treat these guys when they blow themselves up. Earlier in the year, a house blew up a mile from work...it felt like a truck hit the building. Leveled the house (meth lab run by two illegals). One ran away and escaped, the other was burned over 80% of his body. Guess who's paying for his hospital bill of $2 million? We are. And thousands of others like him. Meth people (tweekers) become non-people in a hurry and ought to be euthanized, IMO.
