Why/why not

No it is in direct proportion to your conscience and how you were raised. I have seen rich & poor alike be morally depraved or morally blessed. It is a choice and an environment of exposure.

No, morality has nothing to do with economic status. There are poor people who commit illegal acts to make money and there are poor people who work hard every day and try to support themselves and thier famalies. There are also rich poeple who do nice things like give to charity but there are those who sleep with their secretaries or raise gas prices. So No, morality is not in direct proportions to one's economic status?

Morality isn't directly linked to one's economic status. It takes a lot for a child who has been brought up well to commit immoral acts. He/she considers the consequences of the act he is about to commit before embarking on it. But most people especially girls are forced to do immoral things for financial reasons.

This is actually a really good question. :) There are several theories on this and I dont' have nearly enough room to type them out. LOL
There has been a link seen in it to a point. Yes. But Correlation doesn't always equal causation.

Not direct proportion, no. There is more domestic violence on the lower end, but more fraud on the upper end. The rich can definitely afford better lawyers, though.

I hate to say it, but I think that is may be the case... certainly not always, but most of the time.

the less money one has, the more morals they have
