If you don't trust individuals, you're going to need an institution (or private security) to protect you from them. Police, laws, etc.

But those public institutions only give power to individuals. Bad actors are gonna orbit to those positions and abuse them as much as they can.

Private security is a different thing, as the power given is just wages in exchange for a good service, so individuals seeking power wouldn't want to "just have a job" at those.
