Instead of the Mayor, the Sheriff will go to some State Rep or congressperson and the same results happen.
I've seen similar moves play out in the past in real life

- serial_dev 3y agoCorruption and bending the rules will probably happen even with this system, but it raises the barrier, and if it's inconvenient enough, it will be only done for the most important cases. If every local sheriff can intimidate and bully a local pharmacist to get the information it's very different than if you need a congress person to call in a favor with supposedly one of the few people who have access to the information.
