7. We need ways to reduce the damage done by drunk drivers. |

I don't think harsher penalties are the answer. People lose their licenses & drive without. They get prison time, get out & do it again. Seems like we ought to be figuring out some functional preventative measures. We could, for example, stop glorifying alcohol. We could provide better treatment. We could start altering the painful characteristics of our society that drive people to drink.
