Crime may let the crime in your area increase and become unsafe for you and others  Crime : You will have to pay more to protect your own property and personal safety and security if crime in your area increase  Crime and Violence: Crime makes people angry, distrustful. When people lose their lives or possessions to crime, it affects them and those around them in a bad way. Violence causes people to die or be injured. The economy also suffers because so many people who contribute to building our country die too young and cannot work. This leads to a vicious cycle of crime and violence, because the problem goes round and round, getting worse all the time.  Poverty: People cannot take care of their own families and have to rely on government or others to help them to see to their own basic needs. This leads to injustice as everybody do not have equal access to resources  Poverty are most of the time the result of unemployment and people rely on others to provide for them e.g. they will need government to provide housing and basic health services or church to feed them.  Poor people suffer the most form e.g pollution as they don’t have the resources to protect themselves
 Social justice cannot happen because poor people have less choices than others e.g. education, health facilities etc.  If people in community rely on government to support them other people in community will have to pay for it, so taxes will increase  lack of housing: Poor people do not have access to proper housing and live in shacks and need government to provide for them. Shacks devaluate your own value of your house if it is close to township with informal settlement  unemployment: Unemployed my try to solve problems by getting involved in crime. This will cause crime rate to increase in your area and let investors take their money out of the country  Lack of basic services e.g. health services: The South African health system is trying to help all its citizens. The main focus is primary health care, which free of cost. Provinces with fewer resources and more poor people are not able to provide all the health needs of the people living there.  Will contribute to spread of diseases. This will put more pressure on health services and cost government more money for health services needed  Lack of basic services my cause communities to protest against local governments and damage state and your own property that will cost money to restore.
