Cities With "Funds Shortfalls"

They write more tickets. You can always tell when a city is having a “shortfall problem.” The cops are EVERYWHERE writing tickets; parking tickets, radar tickets, tickets for things they make up on the spot. States even make onerous laws because the feds promise them millions of dollars if they do. Such is the case with making Colorado’s seat belt law a “primary offense” (One the cop can stop you for by itself). That’s worth $17 million dollars (or $20 million, depending on who you ask). Does anybody really think politicians make laws for the good of the people? Riiiiight! They do it for the good of their budgets and for their own careers. If there’s money in it, they don’t care if it hurts their constituents. (Just common sense)
