Why would London have so many extra police hired..? That makes absolutely no sense. Do law firms keep 10 extra attorneys in a one man office , just in case they should some day get a large malpractice case? Of course not...

They didn't have enough police to handle the rioters in London and had to call in cops from the rest of the UK.

WTH are you talking about? Gov't employment in the US has been dropping for two years. Why do think that is?

The Obama stash ran out thanks to the TeaParty.

Gov't employment in the US has been dropping for two years.

Spending has been pretty steady recently, after a huge climb. Employment has dropped slightly, but is still at a very high level, not at an austere level.

I guess having debacles like the real estate and wall street messes of 2008 isn't lesson enough for you conservatives.

Government contributed to them.

that gov'ts don't do squat

Never said that.
