Whatever influence a non-elected person has over their police precinct should be equal to that of all the other non-elected people in that precinct. The voucher thing is like if you had a different sized influence based on whether you have a criminal record, since presumably you would then have a different relationship with the effects of that funding.
It's just not how democracy works.
(It is, however, how pre-revolution France worked, the revolution was as much about getting rid of the system of privileges as it was about getting rid of the king. I think we should think twice about the extent to which we legitimize the practice of treating different types of people differently.)
- cwalv 3y ago> equal to all other people in the precinct Sure. I was trying to contrast those who live within the precinct to those who live outside it. And any influence is bounded by the amount of variation that's acceptable between precincts.
