    Do firefighter next. Let’s show the people that their strong unions can’t save them. I can’t wait for the future

      Such a weird stance to be against an organization that allows people that work in an incredibly dangerous profession to actually bargain on equal footing with their customer base. If not for these unions the profession would be underfunded, understaffed, even more dangerous to the professionals. Or Privatised, more expensive, not universally accessible and more exploitative.
