Kinds Blue collar crimes are crimes that happen on the streets everyday. This is just one among the many types of crimes such as white collar crimes and computer crimes which involves the use of computers in committing the crimes. Blue collar crimes can be include, but are not limited to the following Kidnapping , Shoplifting , Vandalism , Rape . Crime and unemployment The International Conference of Labour Statisticians ILO defines the unemployed as persons above a specified age who, during the reference period, were without work, were currently available for work, and were seeking work. The process of industrialisation encouraged working class incorporation into society with greater social mobility being achieved during the twentieth century. But the routine of policing tends to focus on the public places where the economically marginal live out more of their lives, so regulation falls on those who are not integrated into the mainstream institutions of economic and political life. A perennial source of conflict has therefore involved working class youth but, as long term structural unemployment emerged, an underclass was created. Ralf Dahrendorf argues that the majority class did not need the unemployed to maintain and even increase its standard of living, and so the condition of the underclass became hopeless.

Unlike its preceding singles Jerry Was a Race Car Driver and Tommy the Cat , Tweekers did not feature an accompanying video. The song opens with Larry LaLonde on guitar and a reserved bassline from Les Claypool , from there alternating between his trademark slap bass and a quiet section for the vocals. The song s narrative describes several different trades that the town s blue collar tweekers engage in, but, like many of the other story telling songs in Primus s catalogue, lacks any clear, single meaning and leaves plenty of ambiguity in its lyrics. The song is about truck drivers and blue collar worker s using methamphetamines . The band s Woodstock 94 Woodstock 1994 performance of the song was particularly notable, with Claypool beginning a bass rendition of the Star Spangled Banner in homage to Jimi Hendrix s guitar performance of the national anthem decades before, but eventually apologizing to the crowd by saying Sorry, I had to do it and returning to the song. As of 2010 it is Primus s most performed song live.
