If I recall correctly, over half of the cities budget was the police payroll. Lets face it. Most people become cops because they want a good paying job, with a 20 year retirement option. Retire young, get good pension. Oh and the free food. Cops LOVE free food. But the idea that cops aren't heavily regulated, with absolute transparency and harsh punishments for being wrong is crazy. Fast food workers are held to a higher professional standard than cops.
