I don't know what you mean. What social issues are you referring to? |
I think the uneducated have a higher propensity to commit crime. If you look at all immigrants, minorities, whites etc. different groups are in prison more, and the question is why? I don't think it's due to income inequality, but more so due to people not taking advantage of the opportunities that are available to them and then the social problems associated with bad choices: drug use, teen pregnancy, single mothers etc. Large portions of immigrant populations are not educated and therefore more crime.
