Because politicians keep calling for "More cops on the streets!"

Yup, more cops write more tickets which means more income for the city. More cops means they can set up stings to catch johns and prostitues, which pay fines and leave jail. More cops means they can set up stings to catch drug dealers and keep the assets in the city.

More cops DO NOT mean more protection, that's for sure

The cops have two purposes: collect revenue and arrest criminals after they committed a crime. Historically, that's been the justification for establishing police. Its never been in the history of this country, about protecting individuals. That's the truth, no matter what else they may show on TV cop shows.
