The question before our society is not whether corporate crime is a victimless crime, rather the question is what should be done about it? Corporate crime doesn’t just do harm to the investors that can be unknowingly damaged by these crimes, it has a much more insidious nature to it as it has done harm on global scales.

Freakonomics is a book that focuses on our economy and why things change, prosper, and decline. In the text, the authors explore the effects that incentives and information have on the economy, the workplace, and people in general. For example, in the first chapter, the authors pose the question, “What do schoolteachers and sumo wrestlers have in common?” The average person would say that there is almost nothing in common between a schoolteacher and a sumo wrestler, but the authors of Freakonomics prove that statement to be wrong. They looked deeper and analyzed the biggest problems that each occupation has and noticed a huge similarity, cheating is a huge, often unnoticed problem in both, and they both have incentives that also go unnoticed quite often. Schoolteachers often cheat for their students on standardized tests. Their motive: they get raises and bonuses if their students do well, as it shows that they are being well taught. Sumo wrestlers often lose on purpose. Their motive can sometimes be bribes, but it is often that there

Just as the street crimes per capita in cities are a lot higher than those in rural areas, theft incidents are more likely to happen in big offices than in small ones, as chances of being caught are higher in small offices as well as stronger social incentives in such a small community. More surprisingly, Feldman also found out that employees higher up in the cooperate hierarchy cheat more than normal employees. One reason might be due to their sense of entitlement, and their morale towards “white collar crimes” in which cases they can easily get away with their authority (Levitt and Dubner 45).

Now I know I can not help tens of
