Meursault

Crimes against the ruling class are more harshly punished than crimes against the plebs.

Well, yeah. What else would it be?

What exactly are you implying? That poor people must break into other people’s houses to escape poverty? Or that being poor just naturally gives one a predilection to break into the houses of others? Because the former is shitty, irresponsible advice that will get people maimed and/or killed, and the latter is insulting to the dignity of the less fortunate.

Lots of poor people don’t break into other people’s houses.
