It's sad to say that change will not come. There are to many egos in the way. You have department heads and officials who do not and will not fight for the men or the job. That saying do more with less will rule for a long time. I feel for the firefighters who are losing their jobs.
The irony of it all is that gov cuomo created the tax cap to keep people in their homes but the back lash is that people now cannot stay in their jobs. So they lose their jobs then they lose their house. Now that people cannot pay the mortgage the taxes do not get paid on the property which equals more lost tax dollars for the city or town. Way to go cuomo

I agree with you firecapt. But one thing we were taught to protect ourselves first then the public we serve. We can only train as much as department heads will allow. It's hard to try a push forward when you maybe next on the chopping block. We all need to keep our heads up high.
