Physical services such as firefighting are trickier for reasons including that fires can spread from one property to another, and that it can be wasteful and dangerous to negotiate fees during a fire. Also, if individuals were to get billed for firefighting services, personal financial attacks would become an increased motive for arson.
Doesn't this all apply to healthcare as well, especially for an individual with an infectious illness? One person can infect another, negotiating fees and price shopping is dangerous when a person is dying, and the cost of healthcare incentivizes attacks against a person.
The volunteer fire department in my area hasn’t lobbied for taxpayer money or threatened to unionize.
Not yet, but the seed is there. If the area gets more densely populated, suddenly there will be talk about the need for the full time FD.
Also, tithing isn't socialism, it is giving your money to the church. Voluntary socialism will always lead to involuntary socialism. Optional health insurance turned into the individual mandate. You already pay loads of taxes for healthcare for other people. The only way to stop this is to nip it in the butt and outlaw socialist structures in general.
You can move your body away from an infected person but you can’t move your house away from a fire, and fire consumes faster than disease does. Yes, the inflated cost of healthcare has created an enhanced avenue of financial attack via an attack on health, so our ideas for reducing healthcare costs should help ratchet down the stakes for such malfeasance.
Arson has been a main cause of property damage in North America and Australia over the last several years. Global warming hoaxers started brush and forest fires, George Fentanyl rioters torched buildings and vehicles, muslims and autistic atheists burned churches, etc. It’s a very serious crime, which creates a large overlap of firefighting with law enforcement. Negative rights, such as the right not to be harmed, don’t cost anything, in contrast with “positive rights” which are really privileges that cost other people’s money. Since negative rights are free, people shouldn’t be charged for the protection of negative rights. I’m fine with publicly funded law enforcement, so I’m also fine with publicly funded firefighting where appropriate.
Voluntary socialism will always lead to involuntary socialism. “
Arguable.
Optional health insurance turned into the individual mandate. “
It did, but it didn’t have to. Obama was bribed by the health insurance corporations to mandate the demand for their product, and John Roberts was controlled by the cabal to give an incorrect ruling on the constitutionality of mandating a product. If we end that type of blatant corruption and government/ corporate bullying, then the path from voluntary to involuntary becomes less inevitable.
The only way to stop this is to nip it in the butt and outlaw socialist structures in general.“
The key for many issues is reducing violence. If people want to contribute to a socialistic pooling of resources by their own free will without being compelled by violence, then I’m not going to advocate the use of government violence to stop them. There isn’t a need to outlaw things like hippie communes.
