I'm not a fan of surveillance state, but I'm also not a fan of high crime and false arrests. If we're just tying up the police and having bloated budgets, we should get rid of publicly funded police and allow police to be a corporate benefit like healthcare.


i fail to see how for profit policing with less oversight would be a good thing for the general citizenry?


Isn't that a key plot point of Robocop?

But seriously, it's a great idea. I mean, just look how well healthcare as a corporate benefit has worked out!


Wait, Robocop wasn't meant to be a techno-utopia?


I'd buy that for a dollar!


that's a particularly useful sort of naive comment
