You are not incorrect, however, you can't get there along that path.

Further, as you have eluded to, no system of justice can exist when those at the top do not follow the rules.

The first thing needed is transparency.
The next thing we want to talk about is justice. (what will make a person whole after a crime?)

And the real solutions come about with a complete change of our social paradigm. Little do we realize, but the suburbs' days are numbered. (and the number in question is not even in the triple digits) We will start to see a mass migration. Of large family groups forming.

These family groups will handle all of their business themselves. There will be people who actually care about correcting the behaviour. There will be a sense of everyone for everyone. In this kind of environment, theft and premeditated bodily harm will be taken care of far before it is an actual thing.
