I would think that if the guy didn't pay the $75, he wouldn't pay a bill submitted to him either.
In the other discussion I had brought up the pay for use idea applied to education for our kids. If you have kids you pay, if not you don't. That got a lot of people riled up...LOL! |

exactly, I think they have implemented the pay for sports in many schools already. not hard to understand, no taxes, no sports the moolah has to come from somewhere...the fcn thing that kills me is I see these hilljacks dropping 2 or 3 hundred bucks at the local store on lottery tickets, which supposedly the lottery earnings should finance education, So......lets turn everything into a lottery such as fire service, water service, sewer service...no more problems, maybe bait and switch?

Totally strange concept to me having a private fire department. I wonder if they have the same rights as a regular fire department, like if you call them do they take over your property or can you kick them off your property at will in the middle of the fire. With a typical government run fire department, you lose all your rights to your property once they have been called. They can have you arrested if you interfere. Same with the police, once you have called them, they take over the situation and you can't do anything to make them leave until they are ready.

Our PD was charging for false alarms. Upon being billed for one I argued that someone did actually try to break in to which the police said there was no one there when we arrived. So I asked them if just because you didn't catch them (they left once they tripped the alarm) you consider that a false alarm. Once I explained how that was going to read in the local paper along with a picture of the jimmied door they waived the fee.
