You believe that there would be no crime if just everybody had a home and a job? Are you for real?
Crimes of poverty, deprivation, desperation? Significantly less than currently.
But yes, there would still be plenty of white collar crime that we don't currently tackle either, and in some cases encourage by policy.
If heavy handed policing worked, it would have worked by now.
