I'm intrigued by the concept of private policing. Why don't we move to a system where we pay a group of people, a sum of money on a regular basis to ensure our property is safeguarded, protected, if you will. These men would need to be strapping lads to ensure that the average scally is loathe to break the law. In the event of a break in, why not have these upstanding members of society "pay a visit" to the culprit, to dissuade him from further schenanigans and to retrieve property?
We could even ensure costs are reasonable by allocating work on a locality basis, and then encouraging each firm to branch out from their territories using aggressive negotiation tactics, ensuring a strong and vibrant market place.
Of course non-payment of debt would need to be included as an enforceable crime, thus mitigating costly small claims proceedings.
The main benefit of course is that I would have a reason to buy a three piece suit and a stetson.
