    “For” Does society create criminals? “Society prepares the crime; the criminal commits it.” In some respect I believe that the most prominent feature running through all reasons behind this crime is “society”. It is responsible for the way that people view crime. Many people see crime as glamorized in society and this compels them to commit it. Generally people are born sweet and innocent and are not automatically wired to commit crimes‚ or exhibit unacceptable behavior. It is Society and Undesirable

    Are we going to have a “cashless society”? I believe that our society will become “cashless” one day. Cashless is closer than you think. Only seven percent of all transactions in the United States are done with cash‚ and most of those transactions involve very little money.
