Imagine!

I have always said the high paid athletes' salaries should go to these emergency officials. They all put their lives on the line with their jobs. The athletes are all paid millions, way too much in my opinion.

I encourage anyone who thinks police officers make too much money to go take a look at the paycheck of the officer. In the United States at least, it's mostly pathetic. My dad's older brother was a police officer, killed in the line of duty. The pay was poor, people hate you because of your uniform before you even speak, and you could die for stopping someone who was speeding. But my uncle did it because he had a heart for people. My two best friends are nurses. They are paid well. However, it is still NOT enough. They put up with too much crap, including from doctors who treat them poorly. Not all certainly, but some do. I also remember one of my friends was actually physically attacked at her last place of work by a patient. Doctors? Yes, I think they get paid enough. They also get all the glory. But, I could be wrong.

That would be a world even scarier than the one we live in currently.

Well the medical get paid well enough here that is a definite Kandase. More than enough. Police ..good police are what is needed here with more respect and pay.

We would all be in a mess without police and medical folks.

It would be very hard without them, they help alot especially these days where crime is paramount and new disease emerge everyday

They should be paid well but I think here it goes by tax money to pay them. I could be wrong. I have heard people say football players earn much more than a police officer.

I remember that terrifying experience we just had with the pandemia. All hospitals were working at full capacity with the covid and only urgent situations that were not due to covid were accepted. I don´t think that they are paid enough. But I do think that the owners and big bosses of hospitals and policemen earn too much.

I really would not know

Here in Switzerland they are paid enough. In my native country (Italy) they receive a ridiculous salary.

They are invaluable to the community. I don't know what they are paid, but I'm sure it's not enough for what they do for us.

My grandmother was a nurse. yeah those people do need a higher pay. Although covid messed things up because alot of nurses and doctors leave the job because it is too much.

I think they should be paid more. In the ancient days they had a government I'm sure and taxes paid for these people, they were probably really good with a sword in groups. Or people and families formed gangs to put out word that they better not be messed with. As for doctors you had the good ole medicine woman

Here nurses and police officers have very low wages.
