Chris Yeazell Info

General Motors, DaimlerChrysler, and Mitsubishi Motor Corporation are
three of the four “Platinum Corporate Sponsors” of MADD. That’s the
honor roll of top financial contributors to the activist group. But
that couldn’t have anything to do with it. Surely MADD wouldn’t let its
desire to continue receiving multi-million dollar contributions
influence its position on safety issues.

In fact private companies, especially large ones, also have
bureaucracies.Negative perceptions of "red tape" aside, public services
such as schooling, health care, policing or public transport are a
crucial state function making public bureaucratic action the focus of
government power. Writing in the early 20th century, Max Weber believed
that a definitive feature of a developed state had come to be its
bureaucratic support.Weber wrote that the typical characteristics of
modern bureaucracy are that officials define its mission, the scope of
work is bound by rules, management is composed of career experts, who
manage top down, communicating through writing and binding public
servants' discretion with rules.

Chris Yeazell :The results may not always be pleasing, but the alternative is living in a police state without the protective rule of law.

Real life isn’t Lake Woebegone, where all the children are above average. In reality,

* half of all lawyers are below the average of all lawyers in the results they obtain,

* half of all leading brain surgeons are below the average of all leading brain surgeons in their surgical skill,

* half of all college professors are below the average intelligence of all college professors, and

* half of all judges who hear DUI/DWI cases will have conviction rates below the average of all judges who hear such cases.

Not all students drink and overall they drink less now than
they did several years ago. But the many who do not know how to drink
in moderation give us plenty of cause for concern. Not only driving,
but dating, walking, and even horsing around can become dangerous
activities when students are drunk. Where students do become the
victims of sexual or other assaults, excessive consumption of alcohol
is often a contributing factor. The same is true of the campus high
jinks that lead to tragedy.

Students drink at bars with false ID's which are now ubiquitous.
They drink in their rooms with bottles of vodka purchased with the help
of their older friends. They go to parties where their peers dispense
beer as if on a rescue mission to people dying of thirst. I asked a
colleague who is president of a religiously affiliated "dry" school
what the situation was on his campus: "They drink like alcoholics," he
told me, "in their rooms, in the bushes, behind the gym; they drink in
secret because we punish them for drinking openly."

About Chris Yeazell :No
matter how many laws are passed, the real solution to this public
health crisis begins with personal responsibility --- a commitment not
to drive while impaired, and not to let our family members or friends
drive that way. The slogan "Friends Don't Let Friends Drive Drunk" is
very true. If we are smart, we will reach an expectation that our
"friends" will make provisions for their safe transportation before it
gets to the point of having to take someone's keys. But if you need to,
please take keys, call a taxi, or offer a guest room or sofa. We have a
responsibility for each other. The person you stop from driving
protects your friends, their families and people you have never met.

all the causes of traffic crashes, injuries and deaths. The insurance
companies that sponsor its work are interested in reducing traffic
accidents. Neither the insurance industry nor the Institute has an
ideological agenda to promote.
