You are in a remote location = no witnesses. Wear gloves and don't leave any stuff on the crime scene. Voilá, you are one wallet richer.
Except people have that fear of capture, even a fear of damnation, fear of being stabbed in a retribution killing, engrained into them by society and if there is no need for that wallet, if they are not so desperate for money then there is very little need, not enough need to overcome that fear.
Sure, but if person does not have that fear (say, the person is mentally sick and has no feelings) would it make his act moral, because it only brings benefit to him?
