What assholes.
you're too lazy to come up with $75.00 but you want firefighters to save your house. GTFO.
What assholes.
first responders my ass
I love how many societal problems we solve within 2 pages of posts.

Which is why many hospitals are going bankrupt and giving way to for-profit Urgent Care facilities. Just google 'hospital closing bankruptcy.'

yep, which is why they are putting a better system in place. I wonder if this is the first time something like this has happened in that county?
Hospitals are going bankrupt for many reasons but this is not why.
1. Poor people who don't pay, yet still have to be seen by the ER
2. Insurance companies who don't pay or are paying less and less for the same services
First by a laaaaaaaaaarge margin - ty management of hospital.
Serious question. If he was trapped in the building, would they have let him die?
Or did they verify his life was not in immediate danger, then decided not to save his house?
I'm not sure which is more idiotic.
What? Those 17 million dollar management consultants didn't help? Bas s!
You have to be a real ty human being to let someones house burn down cause they didn't pay the $75.
How much public money is being spent on rebuilding the WTC site by the way?
I'm sure University Hospital here provides tons of "free" services but yet, somehow, has enough funding to work on a HUGE expansion that will allow the hospital to take on more patients by providing more beds and rooms, thereby reducing the wait times in the ER (in theory). Which will probably lead to more patients not paying for services, yet the hospital will probably survive.
Mismanagement and lack of funding is what are killing these public hospitals. So basically, mismanagement at the hospital level and mismanagement at the government level are taking away funding that is probably being given to feel good projects like the WTC site. Projects, that may provide temporary jobs now but aren't REALLY needed, but yet, hospitals that provide necessary services are left in the cold.
They should put the fire out and then charge some obsene fee for not paying in the first place. That's how a lot of rural areas I know of that don't have some kind of government/tax funded fire does it.
Total bull .
next they won't pay their HOA fee to which the HOA will sell the burning rubble for pennies on the dollar.
why not pay the $75. Oh yah..he forgot...![]()
No, he's a POS for not paying but now the situation is in the firefighters hands. You don't be a POS to get back at him. It's not just the guy, it's his wife, kids, pets. What if someone was in the house, they wouldn't go in for $75?
You settle the $75 after you put out the fire, have the city sue him.
This solution apparently made too much sense for the local fire department.
so i guess everyone should NOT pay the $75 and just pay it when thier house is on fire
Thats your solution right?
yeah, a much higher fee
Your solution obviously is letting tens of thousands of dollars be destroyed over $75.
Your solution is re ed and inhuman.
inhuman or not, things like this have to be done. You cant play superhero to everyone if they dont want to play (or in this case) PAY thier part.
You do know how insurance works right?
BTW my solution is to fine the guy a big amount of money for saving his house. Maybe to the point where you bring a contract to him right before taking the hoses out saying he needs to play $1000 or somethign like that.
You just cant get away with not paying for a service, only to need it cuz your a chump who cant save $75.
You dont have to be a re to know this, but in your case, you might have to be a re to NOT know this.
btw..if its ONLY $75 why didnt he pay it?
$1000 isn't enough, it has to be a high enough fine under penalty of foreclosure to make people their pants at the thought of having to pay it.
