More Officers, Less Helicopters & $60 is a Pittance

I don't want you to feel sorry for me.

If the mayor keeps us from getting a raise year after year, than the typical inflation rate of maybe 3 percent a year will cause our money to get smaller and smaller in effect. The more this happens, the less likely that a quality recruit will want to work for LMPD. After 20 or 30 more years, the only people left still willing to become police officer will be total retards. It will happen slowly and take a looooong time, but eventually this trend will cause the entire city to SUFFER.

I know what you're going to say....We're already a bunch of stupid cops that do a terrible job anyway, but that will not get any better by offering us less and less money in return.
