By choosing to live in a forest, you are creating problems for the society you are part of. Among them are the related risk you cause a fire that affects others, need to protect you from fires, and inability to set controlled fires near you that would protect others. It makes sense to have rules and/or fees to prevent or offset that. It's funny. In a recent discussion I was arguing against someone wanting to increase power costs on rural customers, because I think doing so carelessly would impact the food supply chain. But it doesn't take too much "living in forests is great" foolish selfishness in the middle of a discussion of wildfires to make me wonder if I was on the wrong side of that one.
