All jokes aside, this I agree with. Sure we all piss and moan about firefighters inflated salaries etc., but it's true that nothing's "just given", and I think we as a collective---especially private EMS---lose track of why it is that they get paid what they get paid.They earned that money by putting in hundreds, maybe even thousands, of extra hours at work....
I don't think it's not earned, I do think their unions have lobbied and fought for many of their benefits, including wages. Again, we (EMS) can't hold other services accountable for what we're paid.
There's my "back on topic" rant. The California stuff, eh, I don't care. I'm not a huge politically driven person to begin with. I live where I live, and if, or when I choose to move then so be it.
