Safety is best achieved by layering several systems on top of one another.

Cameras move crime around. Wealth inequality raises crime risk, but community cohesion partially buffers that effect.

Happy to provide sources when back at my keeb if rqstd.

So would we have that big of a problem with cameras everywhere if they recorded locally and we had UBI?
