Chapter 234: Auditing and Absolute Power (8)
If one out of every hundred people is addicted to drugs, then simply punishing drug addicts severely could help reduce drug addiction.
If someone is caught trafficking drugs, they’re executed; if they’re caught using, they get 20 years in prison.
But, aside from those who are addicted to the point that they can't live without it, who would voluntarily touch drugs?
But what if, in a population of a hundred, there are ten or twenty drug addicts?
Can the same method still solve the problem?
‘Absolutely not.’
It’s not only physically impossible to regulate every drug addict.
At this point, drug addiction has spread beyond a few outliers, almost like an epidemic.
We need to find the cause of the epidemic and eliminate it.
The widespread corruption in the Visconti family is similar to this situation.
“We can’t eliminate all the corruption.”
Even in modern society, where all documents are computerized and the tax authorities can trace even a single coin, various forms of corruption are still being discovered.
