There are conservatives who complain about how high their taxes are; so once taxes are capped, fire and police departments still need money to operate. This is just an example of the "user fees" that conservatives were advocating during the Reagan and Bush I years. [Under a "socialist" government, these costs WOULD be included in the taxe you pay.]
You don't want to pay the fees? Simple solution: don't do anything that would require the services. And let's pass a few more initiatives that cap or cut the amount of taxes we pay, so that we can put toll booths on city streets as well [that way, if you don't use Oak Street, you don't pay for maintaining Oak Street...you only pay for the streets you actually use. That way, only those who actually use government services have to pay for them. We can use the smae philosophy to get rid of public schools, by charging tuition instead of taxing folks who may not have any kids to pay for services they'll never use.
The fees for the fire deaprtment and police services are simply conservatism taken to its logical conclusion. Get used to it...because once the 2012 elections run the "Socialists" out of office and conservatives take over, this is the shape of things to come.
