On top of that, I live in a rural area where 95% of our fire department is volunteer and I'm still charged a fire tax.
Ironically none of those departments can access my home and the nearest fire hydrant is 2 mikes away. Draft water you argue? Fine, go a half mile through a forest to my nearest lake. If my house catches fire and I can't put it out I have accepted the loss.
Avg response time is 15 minutes, my home is constructed of very old pine from the 30's some of which has become lighter....it would be a pile of ash but hey I paid the tax.
Let me opt in to the public services I can use/want
