Let me summarizes the entire article:
Ethical cops decrease crime. So less of them are needed.
Corrupt cops increase crime. So people think they need more cops. Which increases crime some more...etc...
*fewer.
Thanks Stannis
Fewer is less than more.
Edit: Lol at downvotes for an objectively true statement. I guess the literacy of this crowd is too low for linguistic humour.
Should have linked the dictionary, cause you wrong bro.
If self awareness was a disease you'd be the healthiest person alive.
Almost like a self-fulfilling prophecy... or job security.
Fewer cops over is best case fewer corrupt cops, worst case, fewer ethical cops, or in all cases less cops. Sounds like a net win.
