Clinton proposes 100,000 police officers on the street.
Everyone knows that before she was elected to her position as New York Senator, Hillary promised 200,000 jobs to New Yorkers. And she came up 450,000 short as New York lost 250,000 jobs while she was serving in the Senate.
Now she proposes 100,000 police. So we can expect a reduction around 125,000 police officers by my calculations. Okay, all kidding aside, employing police officers is actually a good way to spend our tax money as long as it’s reasonable.
She’s saying this to Philadelphians where murders are on the rise. Well, I wouldn’t be surprised if murders were on the rise everywhere where liberals are in charge. I know she's just saying this to get votes. But my problem with the whole thing is the idea that more government spending is the answer. I’ve got an idea for you Hillary. Why don’t we get the government out of people’s lives so that they go to church when they need help and hear a message that God cares for them and for others in their communities, and learn to be responsible somewhere where people can hold them accountable? We all need to be held accountable. There’s no shame in that and it reduces crime. Sounds like a plan?
