fire fighter subscription is the most usa shit ever
Actually it was invented by Crassus, Rome’s richest man, who was one of the triumvirate with caesar and pompey.
We should allow people who pull similar shit to die the same way as Crassus lol
Don't tease me.
For anyone who doesn't know, Viserys' death at the hand of Khal Drogo was inspired by Crassus' alleged method of execution.
And to save other people who don't get that reference from googling it, he had molten gold poured down his throat.
In reality, the person lived outside of the city, and the county doesn’t have its own firefighters. The 75 a month is a little more than what the regular residents paid in taxes to the firefighters. Stupid is as stupid does.
I’d call that a failed state of the haven’t even got government firefighters. What other basic necessities don’t they have? Are streets also subscription based?
It’s the libertarian dream!
Toll roads can be subscription based yes
Toll roads are for profit. Roads shouldn't be for profit.
Id call that rural America, yall don’t realize how large some of these places are.
Since when should country size play a role in government support? There are planes ffs. If your military can operate in the middle of a desert with no utilities, you should be able to support a stable civilian management in rural places.
The guy specifically opted out of it. He could have paid the tax but didn’t, and he paid the price for it.
If you can opt out of it, it’s not a tax. It’s an insurance. Taxes pay for everyone.
