911 and similar emergency numbers always cost money.

In many places individuals pays for it through taxes, but people may not realize it because there's 1 tax and 1 big budget that pays for many different public services.

In the US I guess the cost is separated from other public services, and paid through ISP via a fee.

I'm just here wondering who out there wouldn't want to be able to call the emergency line.

It shouldn't be a separate fee, but rather incorporated into the tax that pays for all the emergency services anyway.
