Why can't the city just put all sorts of social services under the police department. Heck do the whole city and everyone gets better pay and benefits.

    That's not a very good idea, imagining cops being involved in any social services makes me cringe. A better idea is to force all officers to live in the areas of the city they patrol, with a housing stipend, so they can't complain about being forced out of the suburbs and into the city.

    You would not make cops social workers you would make social workers cops. Not all places require a degree in law enforcement and such. Just make designations like Arrest officers and social officers and such.
