B: there's some, but I don't think it's a big problem. A lot of it is petty crime, burglary and car theft. There's very little major crime.
A: it's the same in my city. We also have a lot of drug addicts. A lot of the crime is committed by drug addicts who need money for drugs.
B; that happens in many places. In my city, there is a very good drug rehabilitation program. The police and courts are also tough on people who commit crimes, but I don't know if that's the reason for our relatively low crime rate.
A; some people believe that a tough approach is better. Other prefer a more lenient approach.
B; I think that the best way to reduce crime is to spread wealth more evenly. If most people have similar amounts of money, they will not think of stealing from others.
A; that's possible, but I'm not sure it would really happen like that.
