    Not necessarily in the wealthiest areas

    That you need to point this out illustrates my point: the private security armies are there to protect the people who pay them and their interests. If the boss has interests in a less wealthy area, that might be protected too. Maybe.

    That’s not law enforcement, that’s an anarcho-capitalist nightmare!

      Is that not how publicly funded security services work, too?

      Pretty much saying that poor people have an interest in hiring private security so there’s security companies in poorer areas too this is not a rich thing this is a crime is rampant issue. But I guess you live here so you understand the situation on the ground.
