Yet, privatized security forces provide some of the best protection umbrellas in American urban centers; see the University of Chicago security or the University of Pennsylvania's. While I am not a libertarian, there is a stark difference between a city sub–contracting its police force, and truly privatized security as seen on campuses, businesses or even some neighborhoods. I don't think privatization is an answer for law–enforcement and procedure, but it is superior for security.

A truly private fire service would either be a public risk or as prone to free–riding as any tax–based system. Not really much of a solution, just a moral band–aid for the group of libertarians who are such because of a belief that taxation in itself is theft.
