Because the police protect capital above all.

If CEOs are dying there's a potential negative financial impact, whereas unhoused people dying makes their job easier.

Dying unhoused people don't effect the economy which is why no one cares .... unless we can use them as indentured servants or outright slaves, then we could care more about them.

This. If you look very closely at police cars that say “Protect and Serve”, you’ll notice the fine print after that says “the wealthy”.

Barricade just looked around at US society and put the slogan on himself that made sense as a cop car. "To Enslave and Punish."

I'm starting to think the autobots weren't the "good guys." At least in Micheal Bay's Transformers.

I'm pretty sure this is the only way for Reaganomics to actually work.

As wealthy people die, the wealth gets spread out and taxed (a little), so more people have access to spend it. Now we just need them to be more like musk and spawn a horde of children to increase this effectiveness.

Holup. I am certain this is going to be very good for the finances of everyone, including police.
