It's not actually police most of the time, it's for-profit prisons. They are by far the biggest lobby for keeping minor drug offenses illegal. Police don't actually benefit a whole lot from there being lots of crime, at least where I live -- it makes them look bad.
- prabhu-yu 3y agoSorry, I generalized it too much. I was expressing the general tendency, not the exception, forgot put a star mark! Yes, you are correct. There are good people in every system. Even I have seen top doctors in top hospitals who wished patients who had surgeries to return home as soon as possible. I have seen (some you tube videos) some police persons who wished less crime. I have seen engineers fixing bugs once for all! This adage can be seen in the Neitz-sche's statement - "exploitation is a basic function of life".
