One would have a choice, wouldn't one? Which means that if a security provider were bad, you could get a better one - and they'd be competing, thus driving down costs. As it is, our police force is a useless, bloated and ideologically-motivated mess more worried about being called racist than about solving or preventing crime. Don't tell me the private sector couldn't do better.
