Re the TN fire: What happens when the city can no longer afford a fire department? [View All]

[Fumesucker]

Because that is what will eventually happen if the city keeps providing fire protection to people who refuse to contribute even after the city fire department has saved their asses. Less than half of those Obion county residents whose house fires were extinguished by the city fire department paid the bill for services rendered.

Eventually the city will just have to close its fire department and no one will have fire protection services.

What is your solution to those who flatly refuse to pay either before _or_ after the fact of having a fire on their property?
