The job market, economy and crime rates are influenced heavily by the government.
It is not realistic to say that someone is at fault because there are no jobs available that match a workers skill set (at least a worker is not 100% at fault as they could have previously acquired a broader skill set).
The same is even more true regarding the crime rate. Just because you lock your doors does not mean that you will be safe from a robbery - someone could break a window, or kick down your door, or knock and come in when when you open the door for them
Then you take care of those things yourself. Upgrade your skill set. Learn new skills. Do a different job. Or don't do a job, get self-employed. Start a business. If you are still broke in 20 years or when you become a senior citizen, then you did something wrong. Not the government.
I once heard a sidewalk vendor questioned about how the economic crisis affects her trade. She responded that crisis are only for those people who don't work. You work, you get paid. Or sell something else. Or move to another part of town. She was selling street food. (like hotdogs and stuff like that.)
Buy a bigger door? A better lock? Better than your neighbors anyway. Some people get armed. That depends on the laws in your country, but surely you can do something about preventing crime happening particularly to you. Most victims are victims because they allowed themselves to be victims.
So yes, neither Tor, nor PGP, nor Bitcoin is "secure", even for intellectuals.
I think mine is. I may be wrong.
