The math here is just wild
12 crimes a minute - 17,000 crimes a day
6% get answered - 1,020 crimes a day answered
Mega City 1 fits roughly 800 million people
Each Mega Block can fit up too 75,000 people
800 million divided by 75,000 is 10,666 Mega blocks inside Mega city 1.
That’s fucking insane. That raises so many questions. How many judges are on duty at once ? How many even exist for only 6% of crimes to be answered .?? Plus where do they live ? Do they have government housing or do they just have to drive home at the end of the shift & ignore crimes just to get home .??
It just seems like it’s so overwhelming for the judges to even uphold order. Maybe that’s why “order” is so swift and definitive (death/ Cube under most circumstances) because they’re just so overwhelmed by the numbers daily their individual “empathy” levels just get desensitized.
Plus with such low numbers. There’s no way there’s a quota. They would just have to receive government funding just because they’re the only force even trying to still maintain order.
Just some thoughts.
