To my eye, the dog poop problem in Paris is about 5% of what it was 10 years ago.

Not so the turnstile jumping, and this one really stumps me. I just don't understand why Paris doesn't crack down on jumpers. The comment that jumpers have monthly passes is laughable, and while there are enforcement teams in action from time to time, they just can't cover almost 250 stations. Most stations already have video cameras rolling and also humans in the ticket booths. It wouldn't take much to put these together, perhaps with re-designed entry areas, to collect more fares.
