Walker spends alot of time talking about deterence, especially "detering the drunk driver", in which he claims there is no short term way to deter drunk drivers. Walker states "Enforcement crack-downs will not deter drunk driving." In my opinion this couldn't be further from the truth. I think about it this way, "What would keep me from driving home drunk?" Besides the moal delema of if I killed someone, the only thing stopping me is what would happen if I got caught. I have had a first hand experience that lisence suspension would work. I've seen my friends beg for rides to work because the lost their license. secondly the increase in insurence rates can also hurt prety bad too. I don't know about anyone else but I think about these things before I plan to go out drinking.

Still on the subject of drunk driving I fe

Fear of being caught , this leads me to my next proposal. In Singapore (I think) they have a very very low crime rate, and they have streets and alleys covered with surveilance cameras, in which they watch for crime. I think there is a great deal of logic to this kind of tatic. First one person could man a console hooked up to a buch of cameras and watch a much larger area then they could on foot patrol or in a car. Thus the likelyhood of catching someone commiting a crime would be greater. It's also probably more cost effective, because it's cheaper to set up camera than it is to pay each cop 60,000 a year, not to mention cost of cars,uniforms, and insurance. It also will allieviate court backups and costs because what more proof than video tape would you need.

The second positive example is far more interesting and far more effective. The idea is having people police themselves. With these video cameras people don't know when they are being watched, whereas with police officers they know they are being watched because there is a cop present. For most people when they don't know when they are being watched they assume they are always being watched. How many people do you know that will steal something when it's owner is watching? This idea of self policing through surveilence is introduced by the author of "The Panopticon". In "Th
