My idea is even better than paying to breathalyse drunks twice every day, I would suggest.
Everyone of drinking age has a drinking licence which must be presented to anyone who sells him alcohol.
There will be a telephone number for people who have been troubled by this licence-holder's drinking.
Those who ring this number will identify licence-holder by name and address (it is usually the spouse or a close family member anyway) and give details of behaviour complained of.
His licence will be endorsed and he will prevented from obtaining legal for a period to be decided, depending on the seriousness of the offence.
An action fee will be required of the person reporting on the drunk.
It could be a real money-spinner for the government.
We already have the technology.
THE VOICE OF REASON Solon, (born c. 630 BCE—died c. 560 BCE), Athenian statesman, known as one of the Seven Wise Men of Greece (the others were Chilon of Sparta, Thales of Miletus, Bias of Priene, Cleobulus of Lindos, Pittacus of Mytilene, and Periander of Corinth). Solon ended exclusive aristocratic control of the government, substituted a system of control by the wealthy, and introduced a new and more humane law code. He was also a noted poet.
