What targets can you even set for a cop considering that having someone in uniform on the corner in of itself reduces crime?
Wouldn't the assesment process also cost a crapload because the evaluation would be very subjective?
There isn't a bottom line in the policing world that can easily be related to job performance. The incentives might also lead to huge negative externalities.
