How does that actually work tho? They’re public servants, government allocates money to them. What are you going to do cut 10 cops off your force if there’s a lawsuit to pay for?
Doctors are held responsible because they are for the most part a private business, like all business there’s layers of liability insurance.
Taxes go up to pay for police or police presence goes down
The public and businesses in the area get pissed at higher taxes and longer response times
Government sees angry citizens and institutes meaningful reform so they can avoid having to raise taxes further
I mean, in the ideal world at least that's what would happen.
