Yeah, the actual solution is to create some entity responsible for reducing the threat, rather than attempting to avoid the administrative work by creating a lazy-ass bounty program.

Same issue with capitalism. Attempting to reduce the administration of dealing with a societal issue by foisting the work off onto people by promising them profits just makes everything worse.

Bounty programs can be cost-effective sometimes, but they are a very blunt weapon effective on only the broadest and most indelicate of problems.
