The cop flagging racket is the textbook example of what I think of as the brand of corruption endemic to Massachusetts. It's not particularly distructive, but it's an egregious waste of money spent on something that could be better done almost any other way. On one hand, I'd love for it to stop, on the other hand, I'd rather this than what they have in Texas.
