The US is largely an anomaly in the way our LE is organized, with municipal, county, and state authorities. Most other nations have a national police force (certainly, they are "stationed" and work in defined areas) and are generally employees of the national government.

The U.S. Government will attempt the same thing here.

Before it happens here, and it will, they'd better start cutting, and reducing the wages, the retirement pensions and benefits of the tens of millions of government bureaucratic employees. Yes that includes cops, firefighters and every single other government employee outside the military.

This includes government workers already retired..Cut, slash and reduce what we are paying these people. Otherwise, our entire system goes belly up.

"The U.S. Government will attempt the same thing here."

I have no doubt about that. I suspect more and more federal monies will continue to be pumped into local law enforcement until one day, local police chiefs and county sheriffs wake up and big brother says, "I own you."
