Rescue EMS 'Donation'

What is up with these donation requests? Basically tell you if you don't pay $60 you might have to pay $500 IF you have to use ambulance transport.

BUT if you pay $60 you can use it unlimited times all year for you AND your family...

What do my taxes really pay for ???


WTF !!!
 
Sometimes there are ''Non-profit'' organizations that exist solely to pay the salaries of the execs. that work them...like the Police orgs. that call. By law, these non-profits must give AS LOW AS 5% of their revenue to the org. they are representing.

They use all kinds of tactics and often their ''verbage'' will scare the would be donors into donating.

***not sure if this is the answer you are looking for.

Technically speaking...if there is not enough money to run the local ems...911 could perhaps call a private meat wagon for you, and they can charge whatever..So by using the word ''might'' they are legal in what they are saying...even if the odds are 1 in a million that your local ems will shut down.
