In a Libertarian society, who would extinguish the fires?

People who are paid to put fires out. Which is...how it works today. Even in your country.
the invisible hand will show up with invisible water

I'm very anti libertarian but that's a very, easy argument for libertarians to rebuke. Try harder OP
>>74936777
The free market
if you put out the fire, the fire wins
>>74936777
my dick
in the old days before public fire departments the insurance companies would have private fire companies that would put fires for their clients

Most fire departments in the United States are volunteer or partially volunteer stations.
It turns out people don't like it when all their stuff burns down and they do things about it.
>>74936777
The people spraying the fucking water on it.
None of your goddamn business.
>>74936777
your insurance company
>>74936777
volunteer firefighters

Each time a fire starts there will be a bidding auction to put it out, assuming the person whose property is on fire can pay for it. If not, it's just left to burn.
the same guys who build the roads

the government or a private fire department because libertarianism isn't anarchism you fucking retard
>>74936777
The balance between available fuel (supply) and fire (demand) will find an equilibrium according to the market laws. Market will literally keep fires at a reasonable level

But for them to survive, there need to be fires round the clock to be extinguished.
Even in this society, the payment for a fireman is shit, just like ambulance. In certain areas people are getting drafted, because no one wants to do it.
Nobody, because fire is caused by state interference in the free market.

no, they get paid a small salary when there are no fires and a big one when there are
better than what the cancucks are doing
