Unless you think government doesn't spend money on issues other than policing that impact the economy positively, than yes, costs are related to the economy. By the way, due to Ontarios decreased credit rating, the costs to service this ponzi scheme have increased.
So Government spent $14.6bn on policing in 2014. That's like 0.9% Of the GDP. Ontario's credit declined due to its grossly over-extended credit, and due to previous Governments decision to spend money on whatever.
Read the links I provided. Government in policing are excessive. In some municipalities, 40%+ of their entire budget.
That, almost by definition, is a police state. If you think it's just office Bob driving around in uniform, you're sadly mistaken.
These costs, on top of so many other costs behind the scenes. What a racket by covert thieves.
