if the price of a higher quality of social cohesion is a few thousand drunk driving deaths per year I think that the price may be reasonable My Gawd, now there's two of us. We'll take over the world! Still, I'm not sold on your idea of a conspiracy. Create a bureaucracy, get a MADD to agitate in favor, and the tendency will only be to grow. And grow. And grow. A short vignette. I'm aware of an instance more than fifty years ago in a burg in Eastern Washington. There was a fellow who loved to drink whiskey and drive - not well. Couple of sheriffs went to the local judge and suggested there was a local threat that needed dealing with. Judge gave permission, and the sheriffs had a serious talk with the miscreant. Not positive if force was used, but use of clubs was at least strongly implied. This particular drunk had a couple acres that had been split off a much larger ranch. It included a big old barn. Our friend would take a bottle and drive around that barn. In short order he wore tracks such that he no longer needed to even steer. Everybody was happy. That satisfactory option is no longer on the table.
