aeronmelon@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Firefighters and Police are socialism. Change my mind.English3·18 hours agoIn Japan, firefighting services are paid for directly by the people living in that area.
I typically have to pay ¥10,000 a year ($69 USD) and all of that money goes to the closest fire department.
