"wouldn’t it be nice " if we all obeyed every law? Wouldn't it be nice if we all did what was right - all the time.
The fact is - we don't - so there are laws and consequences. When I am caught speeding, I get a ticket. I any of us are caught stealing, assaulting, killing, ... - we pay a price. No warnings, just pay the price. Laws do not prevent people from breaking them. Knowing the consequences of being caught may keep some of us from breaking them.
Mike and others are right - these checks are a waste of moneys that should be better spent elsewhere. They are a waste of the time involved. They are an unneeded invasion of non-criminal lives. AND they are proven not to work.
