The fire department was paid for by the city. This fellow lived outside the city. He paid no taxes to the city, meaning he did not pay for the fire department.

The city made the fire department available to people living outside the city for an annual fee of $75. This fellow did not pay the fee. He was not entitled to services he did not pay for, and seems to be willing to pay only when his house was on fire.

A libertarian's wet dream. For profit police and fire departments fleecing people and then refusing to put out fires for the poor.

Now don't get me wrong. The man moved out there to avoid taxes and should have been given one HELL of a fine (500-1000USD) but the libertarian view of just letting it burn to save taxpayer funds is beyond wrong.

Heard there was going to be a lawsuit on this. Glad to hear it.
