Some people belive that a crime is a result of social problems and poverty, others think that crime is a result of a bad's person nature. discuss both views and give your opinion.

People
can indulge in criminal
activity
because of poverty, social unrest and problems and
also
the way they are brought up by their parents can determine whether they involve in acts of
crime
or not.The world today is filled with
crime
, and change must happen to eradicate criminal
activity
.
Firstly
I agree that
crime
is a result of social problems and poverty especially in developing countries
such
as Africa, Sri Lanka, Vietnam. The majority of
people
living in these countries do not meet the basic wage rate, earning very little money leaving them with no food and clothing to provide for their families, the government will not look into these matters so what
people
do is start selling drugs and involve more in criminal
activity
leading to high
crime
rates and social unrests.
For example
, in 2016 When Africa's economy was on the verge of collapsing the
crime
rate went up by 20% within the country. ,
Moreover
criminal
activity
can happen according to the person's nature as well, certain head mafia bosses and mobsters teach small children to steal and involve in
crime
so that they get their dirty work done, cultivating bad thoughts and
crime
in a kid's mind is a result of bad nature.
For example
,Bangladesh which is one of the most corrupted countries in the world is well known for mobs and gangs holding children to do criminal
activity
, 65% of Bangladesh robberies are done by kids according to a
crime
survey done in 2016.
Moreover
,in my opinion, Both above-discussed factors are the main reasons for
crime
, other reasons
also
include education backgrounds and how kids are brought up by their parents, A parent
that is
neglecting a child and not bringing him up properly will most likely make him involved in a
crime
or other social unrest activities, Law enforcement officers should tighten their parols and keep an eye on criminal
activity
so that they are bought to justice. And
also
make it a lesson so that
people
will not try to reinvolve in acts of
crime
,
this
can be done through certain prison sentences and other types of democratic punishments. In
conclusion
Add a comma
,conclusion
show examples
peoples' beliefs are true because individuals that are involved in the
crime
have a bad nature and
also
come up from areas of poverty and social unrest,
hence
Police officers and other Law enforcing individuals should minimize
crime
and avoid corruption at all costs.
