#asknostr Is justice a human right?
Meaning should criminal courts be run privately?
What expenses should be borne by the plaintiff? Could the role of the (government) prosecutor be filled by the free market?
Private prosecutors exist, but typically require payment upfront, while government prosecutors decline cases they think they are unlikely to win. Which the free market could do probably. If the prosecutor wins, they are paid by the defendant.
