1563 Social Solutions

Sometimes we have social problems that are hard to solve. Stubborn realities based on stubborn humans engaged in stubborn human behavior. So you need a person who can think out of the box and see things in a new light.
Like when they thought of making traffic lights out of tiny LEDs. The green-light really was a green light.
Well I may just be that guy. Because I'm the sort of person who likes to do things like eat candy corn out of season. I feel like such a rebel. Those yellow, orange, and off-white cones of faux corn are good all year long. Why restrict them to October? It's not like you're eating peeps for Christmas.
Here’s one problem. Bums in the morning. Downtown areas the world over suffer from a glut of passed-out hobos who've curled up in store fronts and alley pockets and are still sleeping it off come morning business opening time.
They need to be moved along, and are often quite cooperative when people suggest they do so, but also often quite cantankerous when that someone is a police officer.
Solution? Boy Scout Explorers. It would be a great community service activity. They would learn people skills. And the Boy Scout organization would be preparing them for the real world and life. And think what a cautionary tale it would be for the excesses of alcohol. They could be called the Dawn Patrol. And they'd get the Dawn Patrol Merit Badge. You heard it here first.
Another problem: Solo Drivers. My suggestion? Encourage carpooling and reduce trip miles by giving multi-riders commercial discounts. Like if you have 4 people in your car, you get 2 dollars off when you go through the carwash.
The Carpool Carwash, get clean and get green too.
America, ya gotta love it.
