The Goodhue Police Department resigned due to issues with the city’s pay, Mayor Ellen Anderson Buck said at a city council meeting Monday.
Nobody wants to work anymore.
FUCK EMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
You’re free. Do something other than police. You kinda have to, now.
I’m all for police reform, but you “fuck the police”/ACAB types are just anarchist idiots with serious inferiority complexes. Nothing in this article said anything about the police in question being corrupt of abusive of their power. They were just underpaid.
Part of the reason we have issues with the police force and their policing is that they aren’t treated like professionals and held to professional standards. We need to pay them like the professionals too, even if that means we hire less.
Politicians should have the same income as they did before becominh politicians
This means they to get out and get a real job before going into politics. Seeing how things work.preventing dumb career politicians from having no clue how people live.
Or maybe the income for politicians should be on-par with any other civil servant. Post workers, trash collection truck drivers, state court clerks, natural park management, it’s all civil services.
They argue that being a politician requires having tons of connections and being a “people-person,” but that’s only because they’ve made it that way over the past 50 or so years. There’s nothing about being a politician that is so essentially different than any other way to serve a government or to help a government serve its people.
I generally agree with the ACAB sentiment, but they were being paid $22 an hour which is a pittance. I wouldn’t do the job for that salary either.
