Omar a minimum we need to deduplicate insane degrees of replication. Why does virtually every government agency have dedicated law enforcement? Narrow it down, reallocate budget, eliminate the wasteful overhead.

It’s not all or nothing here. We spend too much and get too little out of it.

Law enforcement is incredibly difficult, especially with the number and types of laws on the books. You want multiple different law enforcement agencies so they can specialize based on the field of law they are in.

Currency counterfeiting is a different set of laws than interstate financial fraud, which is a different set of laws than throwing a Snickers wrapper on the ground in Yosemite.

Which is somewhat irrevant. Teams dealing with each can still share headquarters, IT resources, support stuff, cafeterias, and lots of other things.
