NPR and a large percentage of their listeners/readers some how think there is something wrong with people and/or insurance companies hiring private firefighters😆. If and when government fails, of course people are going to turn to business to solve their problems. Hey let’s just make private industry illegal. That will solve this problem and make things more fair. The article is trying to make this out to be an “ethical dilemma.” And it is, but only to communists and useful idiots. Seriously, don’t give money to NPR. www.npr.org/2025/01/18/nx-s1-5265301/california-wildfires-private-firefighters
