> I never understood the obsession with sending heavily armed police to break down doors for some trivial white collar crime. If there is no immediate threat to life, it can wait. You would think that with all the financial and digital surveillance, the government would be able to do better than physical search, asset robbery, and intimidation. I pay my taxes so the cavalry would come during a violent crime like robbery and kidnapping or physical damage/larceny of personal property. It seems that police are useless when it comes to the urgent crimes and instead waste their time pursuing cases better left to a non-armed government division. That because we live under capitalism first and democracy second. So when capitalist ask government to jump, they ask how high.
