It's a no brainer that the worse the economy gets the higher the crime rate will go. People are already brazen just because, now survival will be the motivator.

Just this morning, when I picked Olivia up from Jeff's he realized someone stole his iPod out of his car. Now, he lives in a rural area and his car was parked in his driveway all the way towards the end of his 1 acre lot! We saw muddy footprints on the black macadam (it had rained last night) and now we know what they were doing on his property because they weren't his or Olivia's!

Man, people suck!
