Nypd’s budget is bloated, especially given their performance.

E.g. they buy new squad cars every 3 years whether they need them or not, and meanwhile to actually do their jobs we’d be better off with them walking or using bikes/scooters/etc in most cases, especially since they’ve been doing virtually no enforcement of traffic violations post-pandemic.

Yet for some reason they always escape budget cuts while we chop away at libraries and social services.
