Have you noticed how much more work and time and expenditure is required because there are so many dishonest people? Perhaps some of you grew up in areas where no one even locked their doors?More likely than not, people are spending money on security systems, theft insurance, password protection, and software safety. And we're all spending time getting rid of spam, avoiding scams from domestic and foreign sources, and hanging up on scam calls. Sometimes I can't readily get into my own accounts because the bank (or whomever) has demanded I change my password, or the system has a glitch, or I can't remember it. We're given random codes that no one can remember (humans can reliably remember about seven random numbers and letters).
We spend a hell of a lot trying to prevent and, unfortunately, later deal with, acts of dishonesty, of illegal intent, of unethical nature. Love thy neighbor? That's become more or a challenge now than ever, especially if the neighbor is trying to peek through thy windows.
