    Before making crime a bad solution you first need a non criminal solution to survival. People don’t choose criminal violence over a well paid job and a peaceful life, never.

      Well, there’s a lot of sociopaths in prison. About a third of the incarcerated population here in Germany iIRc. Those are a little harder to stop since they don’t really care much about the peaceful part. But apart from them, yeah people don’t tend to chose crime for fun.
