Security Camera for Cash Drawers

Security cameras are present at every major shopping mall, all financial institutions and many small retailers. Restaurant owners have seen a major increase in their profitability as well as bar owners through the simple implementation of what has become relatively affordable and simple to install.

Residential installations have also seen an increase. Yet we have not seen an increase at the thousands of governmental sites that take in cash. From parking lots to utility bills, the security camera is sadly missing.

Yes, the court houses have security cameras but where are the security cameras for your local governmental unit who takes in utility bill payments. Where are the security cameras for the municipal and county parking lot attendants?

The headlines read we are headed to the fiscal cliff, yet we are implementing operational efficiencies or added internal controls.

Cash is king and always will be. Those who believe plastic will completely replace cash don't fully understand human nature. We want the tangible and for many they need the tangible. Seeing and feeling the cash that we spend is an old-fashioned notion that will always be with us. Securing our financial future starts with protecting finite governmental assets with mandating security cameras at every location that takes in cash.

Use Technology to The Benefit of the Taxpayer

Is the world this corrupt? Perhaps not but to use technology to its fullest to the benefit of the taxpayers is the job of government officials, employees and the tax paying citizens.

Obstacles to Implementation Very Low

In years past the obstacles to implement security systems was time and money. The systems were very costly. Today the hardware and the software prices are very reasonable. The best part of the new systems is the wireless capabilities that assist in installation.While running wire is not expensive in itself, it can be time consuming.

Home Security Systems

Amazingly it seems the home security system market has grown at a faster rate than the governmental sector. This is sad because government needs to protect the assets of its citizens. It is a sad statement when government is not technologically advanced. It is a sadder statement when citizens do not take an active role. We are a government by the people and for the people and we must voice our opinions now.

Time is Now to Demand Accountability in Our Government

Citizens needs to stand up and demand accountability. Taking action, asking the right questions is needed to running governmental efficiently.

We have the technology, the price tag for this technology has dropped substantially. It is time for the citizens to demand accountability and to mandate security cameras at all transaction points that take in cash.
