Yep. Politics as usual. The politicians are in bed with the cops, so they give them these super deals. They claim it's all about safety and a bunch of other crap, but it's just lining the pockets of the cops so as to not have to fight them over contracts. There's too many situations where you don't need a cop.
Just another reason to look out for yourself, including making money under the table so you don't have to hand it over to the government for these kinds of things.

First, run spell check.
Second, "stand by the road" - I surmise you mean at a construction site. This is usually paid by the construction company and may be mandated by the state or govenment fuunding the construction. The police are there to slow traffic down so the construction workers are a little safer.
I must ask why you think police shouldn't be able to work extra duty jobs and make a little more money?

what have you got against cops ? with your attitude be glad you don't live in some of the counties where you get beaten for your snot nosed crap , or in Canada where you can be " detained " for 24 hours before an arrest or reason is required.
