Drugs and crime and prostitution are all that they can really depend on to survive.

Definitely!
I mean, when was the last time a rich person made an unethical decision? That hasn't happened in minutes.
Society's flaws are reflected in every social strata (HI ENRON!).
"People from there" sounds suspiciously like "Black people from there."
Just saying.
Your post lacks perspective, KT.
ETA: a little explanation . . .
It's arrogant to proclaim crap like "Bringing us down as a society."
What's our society? American culture? Your home town? Rome fell. What the hell do you want?
Also . . . it's bizarre for the middle class to blame the lower classes for "bringing them down." These same middle class folk will exalt union values while discouraging that particular lifestyle among their kids, and disparaging the "inner city" . . . nonsense.
KT . . . the question was posed, and you didn't even address it. Think about that.
