Re: Wouldn't switch said by Kearnstd:public safety by the private sector, "i am sorry mam your neighborhood isnt profitable to police". house burned down? sorry but your block also isnt profitable for fire protection. If you go with the fact that most crime happens in poor neighborhoods, then the public police forces aren't terribly effective either.
As for private firefighters, those actually were in force during colonial times. Subscribers would pay a private fire company for the privilege of having firefighters on call whenever you needed them. -- Blagojevich / Madoff 2012! |
