In my town they can cut the the police & fire budgets as far as I'm concerned. We got way too many on the forces now.
No one in town can understand why we have a 3/4 million $ ladder truck and not 1 building high enough to need it !
Most towns out my way the fire depts have to out do the next town with more, nicer & newer equipment.
