I think you're off base on this one, spexx. This is just how it works in the country. You probably get fire coverage through your taxes. You pay in case the fire department needs to come out to your home.

If you live in unincorporated areas of the boonies, you can choose to pay a yearly fee to the fire department or not. Everyone understands this and knows what the risks are.
