In my opinion, tending to the "minor" crimes as well as the major ones, can curb the growth of the bigger crimes. Letting the little ones go can be like letting a little cancer grow.

Comparing the IRS to local law enforcement is unfair. The federal government, in effect, has fairly unlimited funding. But it, too, no matter how much it tries to convince us differently, depends on the places that produce wealth. It can pretend to look after poor folks by passing nice sounding legislation and spreading sops into poor communities, or throwing big sums of money there which mostly goes to administration than to the people.

Because the “unlimited” dollars can’t come from the people who end up with them, the serfs need to pay up for the privilege of having some trickle down to them

Sounds like you're ready for a revolution. You should get an AR15 and lots of bullets.

Or you can rely on Biden.
