Why though? What's the difference?

We contract out our road construction.

We contract out ambulances.

because companies are harder to root out corruption from

Lol wut

Nigga you're delusional or young

Or you believe people are too good. If you pay off someone from a private corp, who's gonna stop him?

You just said that there should be no police. So the police cant do anything against the corruption.

Whilst in a government institution its easier to manage.

You think they operate in a vacuum.

You need to drop that

The police itself becomes the corruption

You don't need to root out corruption, just choose another company.

^

Or sue them

Then you get to the problem where all the companies do the same thing. @-5K-

who chooses the company?

Coca Cola death squads killing pepsi terrorists 😎

@Capitán Alatriste I do? Or the business?

Just check on the american internet oligopoli

the individual or the town (mayor) ?

@MountainMan That's a byproduct of our govt btw

@Capitán Alatriste I'm thinking like individual streets tbh

So extremely localised

@Capitán Alatriste Do all the malls in your town have the same security?

what happens when you walk out of the "jurisdiction" of this private company?

you can't rely on the competition for help

they'll just see you get mugged and drive away

That doesn't make sense

Why not?

You forgot to pay up your Human Rights subscription... Sorry liberal <:kermit_spree:378719408438116352>

It would be easier to start a private security company though than an internet infrastructure company. More competitors would be available so the chance that these companies form a corrupt oligopoly would be lower

The person paying the security company is the PROPERTY OWNER.

The property owner is accepting the responsibility of safety of all customers

So the company is under contractual obligation to stop mugging on its property

But what if the crime happens outside of the property, or are you considering the person *property*?

It's still someone's property

A person?

No, the place you go to

yes, but you don't pay the police protecting that property, why should they help you when you're subscribed to another service?

it's like walking into McDonald's with a BurgerKing discount code

No no no, you're misunderstanding who the customer is

McDonald's is paying Securitas to protect all of its customers while on their property.

The customers buying burgers are not the customers of the security; McDonald's is.

McDonald's doesn't want to see people mugged on their property

Why not
