I wonder if that'll last if they're no longer allowed to try to enforce the law.
You get South Africa or Brazil: the jobs will move to where the people are who can pay for protection. Instead of going after criminals, you just guard the mansions. That is in itself a great deterrent, since criminals would rather go for unguarded places. And if you're being paid directly by the rich people to protect them directly, they won't ruin your life if you save theirs. If you do have to kill a criminal they'll reward you, at least in private when the cameras are gone.
I mean... the jobs are where the crime is.
