Does Crime Affect BUSINESS Psyche?

Am reading Nikki's latest blog entry: COPS WARN OF NEW SMASH + GRAB TACTICS and wondering what goes through business-peoples minds as they witness such events happening right under their noses in peak-hour traffic.

The commitment to fighting crime seems to be thwarted by conficting messages in our economy, see:

1. Interpol raves over Selebi

2. Selebi and the cop mafia

3. Controversial Selebi receives praise from Interpol

4. New anti-crime initiative unveiled

Seems to me that if one wants positive peace of mind, one has to take POSITIVE ACTION to make something happen within one's own sphere of influence - see Lonehill Community Stakeholders.

Here's a parting question: What can be done to turn the plight of robot-beggars and smash & grab thieves into a positive social project? Imagine our streets clear of such individuals sticking their hands and faces into car windows. What's in it for them to conform?
