Yeah that's overboard and I don't think common services should be profitable enterprises, but the notion that you'd have an entity with serious repercussions for doing wrong to the people they swore to protect is not unfound. As it stands now, they are self-preserving entities and collect pensions when they screw up. So while that suggestion you shared is not sensible, we do need a better checks and balance on the police. Something outside of internal affairs, like a BBB at the top of the state department.

> You joke but I know plenty of self professed libertarians who want nothing more than to see those very services privatized.

Perhaps, but the Trump Administration doesn't even pretend to be libertarian (pro-business, especially big business, yes, but not libertarian.)
