[T.B. Yoits]

New York State lost millions due to Mayor Kaiser Wilhelm's decision to cut the NYPD budget. Most large police departments have federal grants that require the city to pony up matching funds.

Now that the New York City mayor cut the budget, the Feds cut theirs, leaving the state to make up the difference.

True to the Dunning-Kruger effect, the dumber they are, the more convinced they are that they're right.

The Wrong Cuts The real problem with the NYPD budget isn’t officer headcount; it’s spiraling retiree fringe-benefit costs.

The numbers are eye-popping. And unsustainable.
