Option #1 has no downside. Anyone with half a brain would pick that, unless they like crime.

Option 1 is supposed to be rather mediocre, Option 2 is supposed to be a more significant version of option 1 though it has a price of lower civil rights.

How about give a tax rise to option 1, and also include it for option 2. Representing funding for police.

Seems to me the first 3 should also all have the effect of increased gov't spending, last increase in economy.
