We should think about franchising it out to other countries, whether they want it or not.

"Thomas O’Brien, the United States attorney in Los Angeles, says the 17 lawyers in the unit will be transferred to other units without diminishing the anticorruption effort. He insists the revamping of his office will allow pursuit of more corruption cases, not fewer."

Interesting concept at work here. If reductions in staffing and/or money can raise efficiency, I say let's try it here.

No matter how dubious the logic, you have to admit that O'Brien is at least half right. It's hard to investigate fewer cases than zero.
