The police are being taken off the streets in America's most dangerous city – Camden, New Jersey. Despite murders on track to break all-time records this year, the city is moving to lay off its remaining 273 police officers to save money and instead hire non-unionized police officers to handle the streets. The police union is suing the city claiming the move will risk public safety. From schools to prisons to police forces, public unions are being decimated and our commons are being privatized. It's a race to the bottom for cheap labor and fewer public services. In the end, the millionaires, billionaires, and banksters who have bankrupted state governments with tax cuts and risky financial bets win - while the rest of us lose.
P.G. County in Maryland is in a very similar situation. The cops hands are tied and can't do anything about crime. The cops are sick of it , the politics are the most corrupt in the country. It reminds me of some country in africa , always fighting each other.
Maybe we can get all of our criminals to move up there to take advantage of the lack of skilled experienced officers.
