Of course, investment is not necessarily money, but the floorboard of manpower and financial resources.
Give an example of parking fines. Suppose that the property in a residential area is illegally parked, through calculation, every illegal parking will cause the loss of RMB in 50 yuan to the people in this residential area. At this point, there are two remedies:
Scheme 1, send security patrol to fine, take the camera data as evidence, and issue a ticket to the owner of the parking, each ticket is 100 yuan. In order to ensure the rectification, the community specially hired five security guards to do this, and bought 200 new cameras and related equipment. After this investment, the penalty rate of illegal parking has reached 95%, that is, 95 out of 100 illegal parking will be fined. This plan is expected to basically eliminate parking in two weeks.
Option 2, without adding security guards and cameras, only use the spare time of two security guards and the existing ten cameras for rectification, and the parking penalty rate is 1%. In order to ensure deterrence and achieve the effect of stopping parking for two weeks. Adjust the fine to 1 1,000 yuan once.
Obviously, Scheme 2 is not as fair as Scheme 1. The punished person in scheme 1 will attribute his punishment to his own mistakes, while the punished person in scheme 2 will attribute his punishment to bad luck. Scheme 1 guarantees deterrence by the inevitability of punishment, and scheme 2 guarantees deterrence by the severity of punishment. Scheme 1 can basically solve the problem smoothly, while scheme 2 will eventually lead to the security guard being bought by huge bribes, or the security guard will take the initiative to use the fine power to rent the right. This is the truth that "the deterrent power of law lies not in its severity, but in its inevitability".
Returning to the issue of child trafficking, the most important thing is not how to scare off criminals by torture, but that the public security system has invested a lot of manpower and material resources. It is essentially a lazy and stingy idea to expect to scare off criminals by torture. If criminals are the culprit, then those who prevent us from investing huge sums of money in kidnapping are accomplices. And this lazy and stingy thought is also an accomplice's thought.
The idea of doing more with less money has always been very popular in our country. For example, using the title of "angels in white" instead of improving the treatment of doctors, using the reputation of "gardener works hard, candle burns at both ends" instead of improving the treatment of teachers, and strengthening ideological and moral construction instead of insufficient police force ... all use the way of chicken soup for the soul, not the high salary of some business owners. The effect is good.
China's grass-roots police force is seriously inadequate. Abduction needs manpower and money, abduction needs manpower and money, abduction needs manpower and money. If we raise the fine, we can save manpower and money. The government has already done so. Why do we need your appeal?
