Lawfuls and contraband

[Exsiled_one]

So as I was sitting there last night, looking at those fallen comets and smoking a blunt, it got me wondering...
Why do lawfuls destroy the contraband upon discovering it?

Now, don't start flaming yet. We know very well that the key to any happiness in discovery world is either a

a) Nice rp victory
b) free cash!
c) That nice blue msg when you do the killin.

Hokay. So, moving from that, when local authorities capture some contraband, why do they destroy it? Did you guys ever thought about rping that government actually gives support (finnancial) to the authorities delivering the contraband to the local bases after destruction.

Ok, i know, it can be abused. But it wouldn't harm that, for example, after they caught the latest cardamine smuggler, the LPI (or how are they called, i swear it's been a while since i was in Liberty) brings their hauler that transports the contraband to the base.

Maybe it could nudge bit more motivation to the authorities, and maybe make some decent cash for the players, so they wouldn't have to get their trader out and do some routes to support their train CD's.

Yes, there is a chance of said LPI ID transport doing the cardamine runs himself, but come on, one screenshot of him docking at mactan or (insert your base here i've never been to that part of sirius) and he's gone for good. IRP and OORP.

Thoughts?
