Sagot :

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

White collar crime is the defention of money and power related crimes in the United States. This type of crime is generally overlooked because most of the people commiting large scale crime are extremly wealthy or powerful. Some examples of White Collar Crime are embezzlement, corporate fraud, money laundering, ect. It should be 'punished' and 'deterred' by the threat of jail time and large fines.

A famous example of someone commiting a White Collar Crime would be Al Capone who money laundered right under the nose of authority. He also evaded his taxes ( tax evasion ) which is also a White Collar Crime.
