It’s a problem that’ll get a lot worse as being a police officer was already a shit job that has gotten much worse in recent years. For a gangster the fringe benefit of being a police officer makes a lot of sense. I agree with Bernie Sanders on the point that cops need better pay to go along with higher quality controls. Governments are way too comfortable with gangsters/mobsters, many of whom are regular donors to politicians. These gangsters are famous and everyone know who they are and what they do yet they only rarely get arrested let alone charged with anything. And in the rare cases they do get charged they walk. The way I see it the gangsters are paying govt for the privilege to rob the people unmolested which is another way that govt vicariously robs the people. I consider it a more violent arrangement and that govt has with big companies where big companies rip off people and get away with paying fines.
