It's not really splitting hairs. We pay a company for protection. They roam the neighborhood. If their service is bad we can switch to another company.

There are at least 3 different companies where I live. I live on a small (but growing) town. The security company is more visible. I hardly, only now and then, see state police in our hood.

Come down to the "third world" and you may see many bad things but also many good, like now the market fills the place where the state has failed.

The difference is substantial.

I think we should make a distinction, I am talking about a town. Not some huge nation. I don't care what happens in a province elsewhere, doesn't affect me - that is their problem to sort out.

"Local is Lekker", as we say.

Also, do some research on Orania - ;), amazing what people can do when they pull up their bootstraps.

Disclaimer, I live elsewhere. Not in Iranian 😂, but I like to show examples of enclaves in ZA.

Where I live it isn't very ethno-centric, Orania is, different folks different strokes. Needless to say, small town is good and the security industry in ZA, may just be the biggest in the world if not up there.
