Thats it exactly. They just keep pushing the envelope. I wish I could say the bottom line was that this was just a revenue measure, but that's not true. They want you to bendova and take it just because some inferiority-laden cops or fascist legislature says so.
"To Protect and SERVE" is long gone.
Now it's "To Regulate and Command"
"Protect and Serve" was printed on the side of LAPD cop cars in the 1960s when they were the most thuggish gang in America.
It's always had an ironic ring to it.
Or "To Tax and Subjugate".
