Not to mention Alliance border patrols. Isn't that a real waste of energy? It's basically unrealistic to have even a crime free country, never mind a crime free Galaxy. And the Y'po aren't just average pirates. Think about it like this. Even in the Rin empire there are large populations of guerilla Y'po. And the Rin sure aren't lax when it comes to law enforcement.

Also, the Terran Alliance seems kind of dystopian. It's not free of pirates. The Alliance keeps them around for the specific purpose of fighting them, but the pirates aren't very successful at all.

The Terran Alliance IS kind of Dystopian! That's the entire purpose of Naval Intelligence!
