Cory Doctorow calls it "enshittification" and I think its fitting as well
https://www.reddit.com/r/medicine/comments/10hyf7m/cory_doctorow_explains_the_enshitification_of/
He mostly talks about tech, but it could be applied to any business
> Enshittification is "...a seemingly inevitable consequence arising from the combination of the ease of changing how a platform allocates value, combined with the nature of a "two sided market," where a platform sits between buyers and sellers, hold each hostage to the other, raking off an ever-larger share of the value that passes between them."

You can pass your money to children, though, and that's what rich folks do. I'm in Boston and looking at some homes here definitely makes you realize where the phrase "old money" originated from.

Ultra-wealthy know that courts are on their side, no matter what.

Saw someone praising Reagan on Reddit today in "what you miss about the 90s" thread...

I'm sure that cops never killed anyone without a reason. Certainly not in the US.

No, its just funny, because the responses in this thread are all over the place.
I was initially told that I hate cops (there were a whole rant how I'm a part of ACAB), others say cops aren't doing enough and thus guilty and so on and so forth.

And yet I was told I hate cops right in this same thread. Go figure.

Why remove the rude remark? You should've kept it - rude remarks make you look smarter. Happens all the time on Reddit.

>Honest question for you: could the city automate bus lane vIiolations and just mail tickets based on license plate?
I think city could do whatever it wants to do. Its the question of who's asking and how much power they got, really.

Based on the response that got me "you hate cops". Right.

> This is pretty troubling data and likely makes our streets more dangerous for cyclists and pedestrians.
Maybe the Officers are afraid of being labeled as racist or as racial profiling for pulling over drivers?
Sounds like I'm not the only one thinking what I'm thinking.

There you go with your blank statements.
I don't hate cops. I got nothing against them. I don't remember calling on anyone to kill a cop either.
But saying that cops aren't aggressive enough as it is a bit like saying that morale improves with beatings.

My point is that you cops to be harder on everyone and I don't think that that's a good solution. Looking at your post history and your love of guns I can see why you would think that way, though.

So cops should punish more people. Got you.
Not something I agree with, but its a unique approach nonetheless.

How would doing higher citations make cops better?
Is that like beating homeless people to improve morale?

If not cops, then who? I thought they're the ones giving out tickets.
