point to note about country/cultures that are generaly safe and free from theft
is this: those cultures have elements that sit much higher in there value measurements than mere
material possesions,and they demonstrate that casualy and without consious thought all the time
interestingly there are similar behaviors here in Nova Scotia,where people (some) do not lock there doors,a point of honor bieng actualy unsble to do
so for lack of a key,very common to see a truck running,while the owner has left it to go do some
small task
I left my house in Halifax once to travel to the US for a few weeks,and got back to see that I had left the front door OPEN,just the screen door and my les paul black beuty framed perfectly for all to see, leaning up at the end of the hall,1028 Robie st Halifax,NS,sold on a few years ago
To rieterate,its our rampant materialism and endless advertising operating as the our "cultural"(ha!) center
not bad people
