Cops are often the highest paid employees on a government's payroll. Hell, I've lived in states where the cops' median salary of $105,000 a year[1] was higher than the median salary for software engineers, which was about $90,000 a year. That's before overtime, too. Not only that, but they get great benefits and the ability to retire with a full pension after only 20 years of working. People line up for these types of jobs. It's just that a certain type of person is hired to fill them. [1] https://www.nj.com/news/2017/05/how_much_is_the_median_cop_s... |
