The cause of crime is the infinite level of greed, ambition, cruelty, treachery, faith and brutality a person can achieve. Poverty just makes it more likely for someone to go right ahead and commit crime relative to the deterant.
If you haven't already noticed, game theory has overtaken sociology (socialistology?) as the science of controlling people. Get with the program.
Chance of committing crime over a period of time = depravity/(depravity + deterant)
If the deterant = 0, then the chance = 1, or certain, regardless of how low depravity levels are. Of course guilt is a deterant, but the highest levels of guilt over a period of time are small compared to even the least depraved a human can be. There must always be laws to protect people from themselves, they must always be punished, seen to be punished and their leader's depravity must be reduced by wealth enough for them to be less likely to abuse their position (or never do anything serious).
