Crimes or Moral?

Today I had one of those conversation where I do not know which side I am on.

Crimes. They happen all over the world, and all the time, and in this conversation we talked about "being tempted" by open doors and such. My best friend rubbed me. I was 12, and she stole my favourite bracelet and money that I actually hid away, and she stole some of my toys. She probably thought I wouldn't notice, but when I caught her and her younger sister with their pockets full of my things I freaked and cried in pure shock over the fact my best friend stole from me. Today I know why she did it, she was jealous of the things I had, and to many people in this world me and my parents are rich, but in the world and country I live in, I am poor. My parents barely make it for the house, I have to pay many things on my own that teens in my age never have to pay for on their own. Like a phone.

Actually I do no mind this. I think it's healthy to feel for myself exactly how much money to cost to live, and why I need an education, I think the other teens in my country are spoiled and stucked up in expensive clothes, where their wondering isn't if they worked enough (because often they don't even have a work) to pay the phone bill, but if a shirt looks good on them before paying half of what I make a salary for that thing. It's crazy, and their parents feed them with money if they need it, and I hate it. How spoiled they are, and how they expect the rest of this world to be just as spoiled as themself. Their parents drive them wherever they want them, whenever they want it, if they can't they pay the bus. In my world, my parents aren't taxi drivers, and if I want to go anywhere, I have to pay the bus MYSELF!

So here in Denmark rubbery is not needed. If you live a crappy life, if you just make money to make your day, don't complain. We pay so many taxes in this country that people like that get help they actually get money from the goverment to keep on going and not end up on the street. Just because you envy what others have does not mean it's okay to rub and steal because you can't have that expensive clothes as the others. However in other countries than mine, where people often have to steal to survive I see more of a reasoning. If people rub me from a personal belonging they just want, I get mad. I earned my money to buy that thing, I worked my butt off to have it! And then someone jsut steals it? That's not fair. But if you steal something to live, to get food. Is it then alright? No.

Then it's just reasoned. But that does not make it alright to steal from another person. What if you steal money from them that they had to only barely make their day? And they would be forced to steal as well to get food? No you shouldn't steal or rub, or anything like that, it's just an evil circle without ending, I would wish however that the goverment of these countries would help the people to be able to live and not die of hunger. But I can't just decide that or change it.
