Firefighters Union, Thy Name is Greed

(Chuck Muth) – The firefighters union is trying to discredit American Medical Response, a private ambulance service, because the union wants those jobs for dues-paying public employees whose salaries are simply outrageous. How outrageous? Take a look.

Here’s a list of 250+ Clark County government employees with “fire” in their titles, along with how much their salary and benefit packages are worth, as compiled by Citizen Outreach CEO Dan Burdish using the Nevada Policy Research Institute’s transparency database found at www.transparentnevada.com

God bless men and women who run into buildings while everyone else is running out. But this is insane. Every one of these employees made more than the governor makes….not to mention the vast majority of the taxpaying citizens who pay their overly-generous salaries.

This madness must end and the union’s effort to smash AMR exposed.
