That’s a problem with poorly-functioning, non-representative governments, not governments altogether (not saying that they’d be necessary in an ideal world but we’re nowhere close to ideal). Having a private government structure, that is not accountable to the public is not beneficial. The only reason that HOAs don’t have worse cops is that they can’t afford them with the smaller tax base.

The big problem I see is any organization without adequate accountability
