Fluctuating demand makes the use of
Volunteer firefighters more desirable
But reducing pollution and better environment management (controlled burns, removing dead brush, letting natural floods occur) will go further than any fire brigade
Nah take it and put it in renewable energy to prevent fires in the first place. Stop imprisoning people for useless shit, wasting our money in that area. Invest more in education and reduce tuition costs and pay educators better.
The country has plenty of able bodied and willing firefighters, just not enough willing to do it for poverty wages with a seasonal employment schedule. I used to work with a bunch of these crazy bastards in the off season when I was a line cook.
To play devil’s advocate, and out of blind ignorancr, what’s the alternative? Do nothing? Conscript the public?
Fund the bloody fire brigade
Did you see how much they had to increase the police budget? Sadly there simply is no way we can afford to pay firefighters.

By the time they find volunteers it’s probably too late but a proper fire brigade can get driving very soon after a call
Volunteer firefighters are gained ahead if time, they are just called upon as needed
No no no no, that’s too sensible
Land value taxes to fund well-paid firefighters. Regulations on water usage, land use, and construction. Repeal Prop 13.
Take all the subsidy tax dollars that go to big oil and spend them on firefighter salary.

No, pay the prisoners for fucks sake. Also, a lot of people would want that money but its extremely hard to get a job if youre, for example, homeless.
