There is an interesting documentary about problems with public education, specifically in New Jersey. In a comparison between School Districts in New Jersey and Maryland, New Jersey had 15 times the Number of school districts per student as Maryland. The heads of the districts would turn their districts into little empires. The number of districts and the resulting number of administrators was a large part of the problem.

The number of laws is always increasing. So are the number of associated programs. Many of the laws act as a dual edged sword. Laws that are supposed to protect people can also be used against them. Sometimes it is best to keep the size of law enforcement in check. Like in the movie, the worse things are, the more money they get. Civil forfeiture needs to be addressed.

Using a few examples, if someone wants to start a business that is going to take market share away from a competitor, or a journalist is writing a story someone doesn't want published, or a teacher is teaching a class someone doesn't want them to teach, what is the easiest way to stop them?

The easiest way is through the law. Common set-ups include drug set-ups, sex set-ups, and verbal and physical set-ups (getting someone to say something or react with violence). There are "special rides." Laws can be used to enforce the establishment.

This is where mass surveillance, surveillance and tracking need to be kept under control. The more information the authorities have about citizens whereabouts and activities, the easier it is for someone to set them up. For example, anyone can be under surveillance for drug trafficking. Then, it is easier for something to happen.

Another concern is procedural technicalities. If someone has a daughter, for example, and she is sexually assaulted, are the proper charges filed and is the perpetrator prosecuted? Companies can put a lot of pressure on the competition.

Normal daily activities can become sketchy when it comes to money, power and the law. For example, someone walking down the street could have a couple of people get together and say the person assaulted one or both of them in some way. How does a particular situation look if something happens and it goes to court?

Law enforcement needs less resources. People need to take a closer look at the root causes of the problems, such as poor education, housing shortages and a lack of opportunities. The bad activities are usually symptoms of a dysfunctional society.
