<< Police have strong incentive to seize property. Joseph MacNamara, former
police chief in San Jose, Calif., recalls asking the city manager why the
city budget had no allocation for police equipment.
``He dismissively said, `You guys seized $4 million last year. I expect you
to do better this year,''' MacNamara wrote in a newspaper opinion piece.
It's no different at the federal level. In 1990, the Justice Department was
falling short of the $470 million in forfeitures the agency expected.
``Every effort must be made to increase forfeiture income,'' Attorney General
Richard Thornburgh warned federal prosecutors. >>
This is called "tax farming" and it's a pretty egregious form of it at that.

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list. Proselyzting propagandic
screeds are not allowed. Substance—not soapboxing! These are sordid matters
and 'conspiracy theory', with its many half-truths, misdirections and outright
frauds is used politically by different groups with major and minor effects
spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said, CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credeence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
