So what?

I have been forced to pay $1.00 a month for 911 service for years. Over 20 years that comes to $240.

I have never called 911, so I have been forced to pay $240 for nothing.

are u familiar with the concept of insurance? my house didn't burn down. i didn't go to the doctor. therefore i paid for "nothing". your 911 payment is an insurance that someone is available in case of emergency.
skip the voluntary
part. nobody forced you to live where you live.

Nice job directing us to a crappy tinfoil hat conspiracy website instead of directly to the link. You're an asshole.
Here's the real link: http://cbs13.com/local/tracy.911.calls.2.1502690.html

give the OP a break. be accepting that he gave you a piece of information. nobody forces you to look at the rest of the site.

for some reason this doesn't bother me at all- hopefully they add fees to every government service, and i mean big enough fees to make them not used so no one misses them in a few years when we have to cut them all anyways due to our countries looming insolvency
