How do Police / Military pilots get paid?

[hack]

Now, most of my experiences are in Liberty, so I will relate from that perspective

The biggest problem for Police forces is having a revenue strem to be able to pay it's Officers. Fines for Violations of Laws is supposed to be that revenue stream, but most people would rather fight than pay. I can't count the number of times smugglers and REGULAR traders have opened fire on Police Forces. Yes, Confiscation of Illegal cargo could help supplement that revenue stream; most times the cargo is destroyed.

Police Forces can have traders up to 4300 Cargo limit, but due to having to patrol large areas with a small number of people doesn't leave a whole lot of time to trade... Most people fund their Police Characters with a Civilian trader...

Would we like to pay our people? Yes.... At least something, even if its enough to cover outlays of ammo, or some weapons upgrades....

As for those factions getting a stipend from the ADMINS? I don't see it happening.... too much work involved....Ultimately another group would feel slighted that the Police / Military forces get free money and make a stink.
