The function of the police is system sustaining. It is to maintain that overall system and you don't look at the particular cost. I can demonstrate to you that every single bank robbery. That in every single case practically, the cost of the police was more then the actual money that the robbers took from the bank. There's really no economic interest involved in it.They're not protecting the banks! The police are just doing this because they're on a power trip,or they're macho, or uh they're control freaks.That's why they do it. No! Of course it's an economic, of course they're defending the banks.Of course, because if they didn't stop that bank robbery, regardless of the cost. This could jeopardize the entire banking system.You see, there are people who believe that the function of the police is to fight crime and, that's not true, The function of the police is social control,and protection of property.
