This crime prevention ad offers a thought-provoking perspective on the notion of crime. It cleverly plays off the common saying "crime pays," but with a twist. Instead of endorsing crime, it acknowledges that engaging in criminal activities may result in incarceration, where individuals typically earn a minimal wage, symbolized by 33 cents an hour for labor. By presenting this stark reality, the ad aims to discourage criminal behavior and emphasize the negative consequences of crime.
