    Crime has become an accepted part of American culture according to sociologist Daniel Bell. He argues that Americans have come to see criminal acts like racketeering, gambling, and corruption as normal behaviors rather than as socially destructive acts. This new attitude toward crime poses a threat to American democracy and values if left unaddressed.
