In sociology I believe the functionalist (correct me if I'm wrong it's been a while) perspective takes the view that every part of society shares an interdependence with every other part, so that yes, crime is a crucial part of society, it actually keeps things in balance! I'm not saying this is my view, but it does kind of relate to what you've said about america relying on criminals. As for the whole dope thing, yeah it's pathetic really but people will do anything to make a buck and it's those bastards at the head of such clothing lines that are probably the real criminals...
