Yes, which is an important question you need to have an answer to or else you're just writing shit down on a paper (that the cops go out and point guns at people for using millions of your dollars) so you can sleep better at night Well the problem with drunk driving is that you can't really stop anyone from doing it(Unless you somehow made it so cars stopped working if there is a hint of booze on you, but that would come with it's own issues). So by design it's a problem we can only react to after something bad has happened, isnt' it? But "do nothing" is absolutely pointless. Even if there's no perfect solution(and few things have perfect solutions), doing nothing is one step below "Actively supporting it". Well I suppose "Can do nothing" and "Won't do nothing" matters in that case... I personally wouldn't mind if drunk driving gave you a lifetime sentence on your first offense, but that still doesn't create a preventive solution. --- http://i.imgur.com/gOGzcN4.gif <cite>Dark Young Link posted [p:896148076] in Politics C...
