Wait till he says, "Can you imagine a private police force being as corrupt as the government-run one? It would go out of business!"
If you can't tell if there's something wrong with that, you're one too.

Something wrong with what? Being able to imagine the concept, the concept itself or him asking that question?
It's a rhetorical question which is intended to convey the idea that private police would be less corrupt.
I've added some context so you understand the tone.
The purpose of private enterprise is to make money. The idea that private police would be less likely to accept bribes is absurd.
It depends on whether the bribe taking is affecting the brand value of the company or causing complaints thus creating loss.
If it were a problem, Somalia would be the safest place in the world. There is no government, and you can get protection from any of a whole bunch of gangs.
