Pay me? Pay me what?

When they get sued, their liability insurance pays. Then it goes up. It's beautiful.

to be a cop & carry your own insurance?...

I heard a great idea recently; have cops carry their own liability insurance. The ones who keep going to Internal Affairs will see their insurance rates climb until they can't afford to continue being a cop.

It's called ACCOUNTABILITY, and it's about fucking time we required it at ALL levels of government- because fascism and oligopoly thrive best in the absence of personal accountability.

Insurance companies and litigation! The answer to oligopoly! Because insurance companies aren't part of big business or anything... You can't fix a corrupt system by using a more corrupt system, and insurance companies in the US are just about the MOST corrupt and monopolistic of all.

They'd have to. If not, no one would stick around for the job.

how much?....

 

[Ace Yonder]

how much?....

My guess? Enough that it completely covers the increased cost of the insurance, because that is what their Union would fight for and probably get.

most people wouldn't do the job for any amount of money....

 

[ttystikk]

how much?....

Enough to cover the livability insurance at normal rates. After all, the department has to carry it anyway.

There's that.

Yet, it's a necessary service in a modern society.

Wait, I'm confused now. I thought the question was how much more would they have to pay cops if cops carried their own liability insurance.

[UncleBuck]

The police are going to stop protecting you, that is what they are going to stop doing.

I'm so fucking tired of watching people get shot, but that's probably just me.
