#10 You don't have enough police, so your solution is to have less police. Brilliant.
As for paying for the garbage pickups, you've heard about the mob using the garbage biz to make money.
Who do you think the mob paid off to get the biz?
But there will be no prosecutions for that.

#11 The value of any legit bidness to the mob is as a conduit for money laundering. That's why they have no problem with buying in but will gladly just take it over if they can.

For it to work as a money laundering conduit it has to fulfil its legitimate function.

#12 I’ll like to be the guy in charge of winding down the numbers of the NYC Police. Everyone else has done all the work, I could just sit at my desk and be sure that my bonus was maxed. Maybe I would harass the schlub who didn’t follow the memo about including a cover sheet on the TPS report.

#15 Paper cuts. So many police, etc. have quit that instead of actual firing/layoffs. the city just don't hire replacement and thus can claim to have reduced the budget.

Just another political magic trick, watch the hands...
