Over paid firefighters compensation tactics

I have said before that fire-fighter have one of the best jobs in the world. They also have some of the best pay relative to actual work-effort. Here is another story from the oft-conservative site, Library of Economics and Liberty, regarding tactics fire-fighters use to increase compensation (pay, benefits, retirement, shorter hours or schedule flexibility or reduce total years of service). Here.

I just wish there were more Black and Hispanic fire-fighters. Share the wealth.
