surely this is a better use of time and money then giving everyone housing, food, and healthcare.

Corpos ~~pay them for this service~~ appreciate the justice served, and providing housing, food, and healthcare ~~costs money, not makes money~~ isn't part of law enforcement's job duties.

Exactly. You get it. They only do this to help us little folks out. It's out of love and compassion, that they allow the corpos to sue the living shit out of everyone for no true good reason. It's not out of greed. Why can't we understand that?!
