the federal government has also changed, where now the retirement plan is more of a 401k format. not a pension. people are grandfathered in depending on start of service date whether they qualify for pension or savings plans
not just law enforcement ... IT and systems folks (=nerds) with security clearances likely outnumber LEO double dippers.
