People who are paid to put fires out. Which is...how it works today. Even in your country.

I'm very anti libertarian but that's a very, easy argument for libertarians to rebuke. Try harder OP

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

>>74936777
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

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

>>74936777
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

>the government
Local government?! Well that's just insane. It's not like they have anything to do with fire departments right now...

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.
>>
>>74938696
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
