I Am all for seezing profits from criminals butit sets a dangerous line.

I thought another way looking at this.

If we taking these funds which possibly in greater scheme earns the country a pretty good return, dont know what the figures are. Then if we look at it in two fronts would we be in worse state financially without this dirty money. Thats not even considering seezed good which have been auctioned. However I had friend who bought from police auction then months later got acused of stealing it because admin error.

The other is whats current happening in the country the hardship especially crippling poorest we experiencing. Now its been PROVED in the past by countless stats that crime goes up when people get desperate. Pushing more people into life of crime which would not necessary done it but they need money to put food on the table so take a risk. No I have nothing but distaste to those career criminals who steal to feed drug habits. I dont want to stereo type people but theye is some bad ones and those who peddle drugs rob banks those sort.

No with the cuts going on those stupid criminal underhanded tactics used by coalisition. The ones been debated like one example to put some unemployed into serious hardship. Basically setting them up with stupid job targets or even forcing to apply to jobs they cant do physically/not qualified. The way geniune disapled getting treat.

Basically underhand way to encourage people to get desperate to steal and increase black marketeering. So we end up increasing the profits from boosting the proceeds from crime.

Now you would never get government to admit that but lets look at another way. I am not accusing this is a government policy but there has been some presidence to line pockets.

We had for years the targeting of Car drivers to increase profits by fines. Rightly or wrongly for speeders parking violatations. I have seen several cases where I live that speed cameras placed in areas which would reap FUNDS than it being an Actually dangerous location. Actual dangerous places have no speed cameras because it would not be financially viable.

So to say they are safety camera is bit of lie. Equally parking issue do they target cars which are obstacle or simply areas which they get better financial return. When you hear stories that they are given targets to meet then its no wonder they treated badly by motorists. We could argue if you dont break the law you dont get a fine. Well I have never been fined for speeding or parking always kept my speed in check. I have seen a change of atitude thats its about getting money anyway possible hook ot crook.

We even in courts see victim charges impossed on speeding fines which I have always wondered who was the victim. So another stealth way to raise funds.

I would hope that government squeazing to sort stealthy raise funds especially insurrances going ballistic.
