    Why is it a bad thing that the head of law enforcement be accountable to the people directly? Why is it better for them to be appointed by a wealthy politician?

      Law enforcement should always require training and knowledge of the law.

      Politicians are there to oversee and be elected, they are accountable to the people directly and they have the power to fire police officers.

      Law enforcement shouldn’t be elected and thus be influenced by people directly
