The socs have all the money they need, they have nice cars. S.E. Hinton shows violence is not the answer by saying, " You can't win, even if you whip us. You'll still be where you were before-at the bottom. And we'll still be the lucky one's with all the breaks. So it doesn't do any good, the fighting and the killing. It doesn't prove a thing" (Hinton 117).
