Economics of Police State

The great Tom Woods!  No way can explain the inter-workings of the police state in such an uplifting manner like Tom Woods.  Now I know why the police have hard time catching murderers but seem to excellent at harassing the public. I always sort of expected some of these reasons but Tom Woods lays it out in such a great way it is now obvious to me.  The police really do not have much a motive to catch murderers.  Especially when low murder conviction rate is under reported.  But the drug war!  That is where the money is!  Police departments do not get federal money for catching murderers, rapists, and other dangerous criminals but non-violent drug offenders better watch out!  This is because of the staggering amount of money linked to the drug war.  The more drug convictions, the more money and grants flow from the federal government.  Most of these grants seem come in the form military weapons and equipment so that our average peace officer is bristling with more firepower than a Marine in the Battle of Fallujah.  Human nature being what it is, police start acting like they are exactly that when dealing with the civilian population of the U.S.

Watch Tom Woods to find out all the cool military weapons like grenade launchers and tanks owned by your local police!

    you be rich and continue to guide others.

  28. I think what you typed was actually very reasonable.
    However, what about this? suppose you added a little information? I ain’t
    suggesting your content is not good., but what if you added a title that makes people want more?
    I mean Economics of Police State | FreedomOmaha.com
    is a little vanilla. You could look at Yahoo’s home page and watch how they create post headlines to grab viewers to open the links.
    You might add a video or a related pic or two to grab people excited about what you’ve got to say.
    In my opinion, it could bring your posts a little bit more interesting.
