How do you feel about emergency services becoming entirely fee-based?

Asked by jerv (31076points) October 4th, 2010

In Tennessee, a homeowner watched his house burn down as firefighters did nothing because he didn’t pay a $75 fee.

Are we now *so*capitalistic that everything is for sale, even stuff that should be free or covered by our taxes? Basic medical care has already become a commodity; what’s next?
