>No job, no hope, no education All of those things are remedied by actually getting up off that curb and doing something about it. He can get a job. He can muster up hope. He can educate himself or go to school. It all starts with him deciding not to be useless and weak. He will turn to drugs because it is easy, although ironically he will do it as a job, get educated about the business and have hope that he can make some mad money doing so. He could turn that towards another legal trade but instead he chooses the easy way. It is on him that he becomes a criminal from that choice.
