Answer: the crime rate isn't as high as it seems to be. The crime rate is high in the cities, but low in the rural and suburban areas.

Most cities are extremely liberal, making it practically impossible for good citizens to own a gun for self defense. For this reason, urban criminals know that their intended victims are helpless, and they can commit violent crimes with impunity. (Suburban and rural criminals are strongly deterred from their potential crimes by the presence of armed citizens.)

Explanation: Cities are also home to vast numbers of government dependents, broken homes, and fatherless children. Fatherless children with unstable home environments have a much higher likelihood of turning to crime, joining gangs, etc. American cities skew the statistics for the country as a whole — but if you take the cities OUT of the statistics, then America is one of the safest places in the world.

expeople1 [14]

When Joseph sees a frail man limping around the corner he owns, he will likely help if the costs of helping are small and Joseph will feel better about himself helping.

Helping someone in need corresponds to a form of empathy and altruism, which is based on the moral emotions we feel when we see a person in a situation that we have the ability to help.

According to the theory of social exchange, altruism only exists if the benefits to the helper outweigh the cost, so supported by this theory, the letter b is correct, and Joseph will help the man if the costs of helping are small.
