More cops, more prosecutors, more jails, etc. This all costs money. I was watching the other day what was going on over in Pa. Former AG and now governor Josh Shapiro in his budget address provides more money for more state cops to cover not only for the growing number of retired PSP leaving the force but increasing the size of the force in the coming years but more money for local municipal law enforcement. Now after hollering for years for  stepped up law enforcement what's the first thing Pa GOP legislators were wringing their hands about? They say this action would contribute to the state running a deficit in two years.</blockquote>
