Your stimulus money at work hiring more law enforcement officers

Quote:The federal government will give $1 billion in grants to law enforcement agencies in every state to pay for the hiring and rehiring of law enforcement officers

No doubt this benefits the dirty brown skinned people and islamofacists.

It's just more people that can be scolded by our fabulous President for "Acting Stupidly".

Actually, I have no problem with hiring more police officers.

They should have done 2 billion dollars worth and not spent the rest of the 845 billion.

That said who pays for these cops next year when the money is gone?

the National Credit Card of course


but as we know, all "Libertarians", support Stimulus/Porkulus Deficit spending. Which means they would all be logically taking the time to make Racist/crackpot assertions and post defending .0011% of Porkulus.

From the link above..

Quote:The current round of grants will be awarded to 1,046 law enforcement agencies in all 50 states, and will provide 100 percent of the approved salary and benefits for 4,699 officers for three years.

What happens after said 3 years? If I am correct, I believe that that's around the cutoff time for a promotion in larger police agencies. Would the officers be laid off right before it's time to become the 2nd grade of officer?

No surprise here....The government is not going to get behind in its control of the population by decreasing it's enforcement capabilities. Without the ability to extract further income from the people by enforcement of silly statutes..just how does anyone thing the police departments will survive?
