No not really
pride is at the root of prejudice
Avarice (not greed) is the root of social inequality and the belief in social superiority, class distinction and oppression
lust for anything is one of the two prime motivators of all crime (passion and profit) rape and murder spring to mind
envy again the cause of revolutions, murder, uprisings and crime generally
gluttony the cause of obesity and starvation, medical conditions and again terrible inequality
wrath causes cause, murder, battery, and war
and sloth = negligence, a culture of social indifference and ultimately the sort of decadence that destroys entire civilisations
Hardly victimless if not in themselves crimes, certainly contributory factors to criminal behaviour.
