Corruption: A License To Kill

Let every driving license bear the name of the officer who approved it. And in every accident case, let penalty points accrue against that officer’s name. After a threshold of points to account for bad luck, let fines be levied on the officer himself, with increments and promotions halted. With something concrete at stake, the licensing officers will thus be careful while giving out licenses.

Responding to an article by Joel Waldfogel at Slate, Amit over at The Indian Economy Blog is not sure if corruption has more benefits than costs and proposes an example to make government more accountable in its services.
