"Fixing" the problem(s) is not easy. Here is a really radical idea:
Make narcotic drugs legal and free, or at least very inexpensive.
Making drugs legal and free would go a LONG way towards reducing
theft, if that is considered to be the **BIG** problem.

Ooh, scary idea. I was in Amsterdam, at the peak of their experiment with
legal drugs, and prostitution, and I never wanted to get out of a city
quicker, than there. Stoners sitting around everywhere, shooting up in
public, women naked in store windows, filth everywhere....

I shudder to think about it. I believe they decided it was a failure, also.
