It only costs so much because no one pays it.

My friends that are EMTs say that 80% or so of their calls are non-emergencies. Some are even because the caller basically wants a free ride to the doctor, and they know they will never pay, so they don't care that they are taking away an ambulance from someone that may need emergency treatment.
