So using mercenaries in other countries is bad but using them in you own country is fine? I'm thinking they would pay them one of two ways. Per person arrested, and they would arrest people for bullshit reasons, or pay them a fixed rate, in which case they would do not a damn thing. It would be even easier for them to be bribed, especially by corporations. The owner's of these companies could do anything with no repercussions since they own the fucking police! Here in America the prison system is privatized and look just how well that worked. /sarcasm This is the worst fucking idea I've heard in a while from England. I want to punch who ever thought this was a good idea. It's not what could go wrong, it's how many will.
