"How come volunteer fire departments exist?" is a rethorical quesiton. Whether volunteer firefighters have other jobs is beside the point. Clearly, useful tasks can be executed without a work context.
The reason you need to pay firefighters is because society is work-centric.
- d1sxeyes 5y agoAs a rhetorical question, I don’t think it achieves the goal you intend it to. The reason you need to pay firefighters is because a few people might give some of their time, but a fire department needs to operate 24x7. When you can’t find enough volunteers in your society, how do you solve the problem of buildings burning down at a time no-one chooses to volunteer?
- bjourne 5y agoI think people would volunteer. Main reason not many volunteer is because they are busy with work. In a workfree society people would have much more free time to spend than they have now.
