Just curious... when did volunteer firefihhters get insurance?? Are these indiv. Plans, or do their townships cover them?

They never did through the fire organization, it was voluntary thus no pay, beni’s etc. The problem was that bammycare doesn’t make any distinction between volunteer organizations and others. Thus volunteer organizations (who often have many volunteers to spread the burden) were going to be on the hook for either insurance or the penalty to the government, neither of which was affordable.

Luckily King Barack has seen fit to allow us to keep our volunteer fire departments for at least one more year.
