Are less wealthy people more likely to steal? And how about religion or race as a factor?

When you watch the news, don't you feel sometimes, that there is so much crime and danger in the world?

And don't you catch yourself thinking or even saying things out loud like:

'It makes sense that poor people would steal. They need it.'

Or; 'Be careful in areas like that! People are likely to steal your wallet.

Or; ''They' go to church every sunday, they would never steal.'

Or; 'The world is full of bad people.'

This beautiful experiment video by @MarkRober shows that any of those factors religion, race, wealth, areas have very little to do with the honesty and goodness of people.

It appears there is plenty of good people around 🙏

And I learned something new, the postal box trick pretty cool!

People are bad. You don't have to teach kids to steal, lie, etc. Kids do it naturally. They can learn and choose better as they get older.

Yup

This was uplifting..

Thanks for sharing..

This is his way of having a little hissy fit because we refuse to believe the Earth is flat.

Free speech?!?! Nah, not unless you believe the Earth is flat or hosts elevator using aliens!! Right, @fulltimegeek?
