Apparently the plan was to disband the local department and merge it into the department of a neighboring area, then split the cost in an effort to lower the overall operating costs of police services in the area.
The other city they were going to do this with declined the deal and so this town had to keep their local force in tact.
Upon hearing that the city they worked for was trying to eliminate their jobs, a bunch quit.
We have quite a while yet. We spend about 200 billion servicing the debt right now and have around 4.8 trillion in revenue.
The warning line is having a debt equal to your GDP. The US has a GDP of around 28 trillion but a debt of 34 trillion. So we are past that warning line, but by itself that doesn't mean anything.
For other countries it would signal to banks and other countries that it might be a bad idea to loan to them, but the US has a kind of special status in the global economy and this hasn't slowed down loaning so far.
No joke, 50th anniversary of the first F16 flight is coming up very soon.
Granted the guts of that plane have been upgraded over and over, but still.
Eventually the interest in the debt will grow too large to service. The government will have to print more and more money leading to hyperinflation.

I drove one for awhile and the efficiency is noticable.
You want to get things like this passed, you get a big enough group to just walk around down town in the rich area open carrying and mean mugging everyone.
Make the upper class uncomfortable. You'll get that passes in no time.
It's no different, both scenarios are threats to your life until the point the trigger is pulled (then it goes from threat to attempt).
I think the per capita measurement of pollution for China is not really an apples to apples comparison to other first world nations as so much of their population lives in poverty.
Ugh, why'd they have to get NDT to do that anyway.
He just seeps with smug assholery.
