Should funding for local police departments be redirected to social and community based programs?

Funding should be redirected toward making police officers more reliable, they should receive social work training to make them more reliable in the field, and also making school resource officers for all school districts become a welcomed sight for children in school so the police can earn their place of respect again.

The U.S. economy grew briskly in the second quarter.Gross domestic product rose at a 2.8% annual rate in the second quarter, adjusted for seasonality and inflation, the Commerce Department said Thursday.That handily beat the 2.1% expected by economists polled by The Wall Street Journal.

While the U.S. by many measures is doing well even amid high rates, and the pace of inflation has cooled, many Americans are unhappy that prices for groceries, cars and homes are so much higher than they were a few years ago.And even though predictions of a recession have faded, there are signs of weakness.
