I'm not a fan of surveillance state, but I'm also not a fan of high crime and false arrests. If we're just tying up the police and having bloated budgets, we should get rid of publicly funded police and allow police to be a corporate benefit like healthcare.

But seriously, it's a great idea. I mean, just look how well healthcare as a corporate benefit has worked out!
