The Affordable Care Act forces companies with more than 50 workers to buy them all health insurance or pay hefty fines The IRS says volunteer firefighters are 'employees,' even though the Department of Labor says they're 'volunteers' Out of more than 1 million fire departments in the U.S., 87 per cent are staffed entirely or mostly by life-saving volunteers Members of Congress are weighing in, but the Obama administration hasn't taken any action yet to carve out a fire-fighting exception

I have this nagging feeling that it will not go as easy as the elites hope. Some Americans are pretty resourceful and don’t take kindly to tyranny. All of their supposed stockpiles will just become resupply points. All of these elites have homes, families and need to eat. “Freedom’s Just Another Word For Nothing Left To Lose”. When Joe Average hits that point, all Holy Hell is going to break loose. Just sayin...
Oh I/we/you/us et al are for SURE gonna throw out resistance. There is no doubt in my mind they will catch holy hell for what they have set into motion. The problem is that of the ‘100 million’ gun owners we hear about.....how many are REALLY prepped? How long can they hold out and on and fight? Within one month with food and water running out, how many are gonna be left alive because of that and other various societal natural ‘thin the heard’ workings take effect. Then throw in the Fed’s. thin the heard actions with us and it is not gonna be pretty. The Fed’s goons are/will be well fed and watered. They are prepared and have been preparing for years. The groups enforcing Martial Law can wait us out so to speak. If this sounds defeatist I did not intend it to be. I hope to hell I’m 100% wrong on it but math is math.
Yes, I’m afraid you’re correct.
I don’t doubt it. We need trials and hangings for larceny on this scale.
“Yes, I’m afraid you’re correct.

By the way, I was a volunteer fireman in west Tennessee, so I know how they work.
I also set up a radio repeater system to link all of the departments in my county.
Of course. Anything Barry touches, even remotely, is described beginning with "I".
That just isn't going to happen.
Every time I see something like this, I remember that witch saying “We have to pass the bill to find out what’s in it.” Well, this is the king of B.S. that was in the bill that we the people would have known about that they didn’t want us to know about. These ‘rat should all be removed from office!!
This hits home with me. I make regular cash and equipment donations to our local volunteer fire department. I am stupified on a number of levels. Roberts determined this was a tax. Ok. How the heck do you tax volunteers?
Unionized Fire Fighters Love Obama!
The unionized and paid departments will do just fine under Obamacare. They have a carve-out, for sure.
Every volunteer department that closes will be replaced by a paid, unionized department. Or not. Maybe one in three in rural areas. A lot of houses will burn, and a lot of people will die.
