Exactly! So this bill is to give even more money and benefits to folks like this "poor" firefighter?
Geez. I bet he has a disabled placard for his car too.
One scammer does not erase the heroism of first responders who really need help.
From what I can see the bill may be flawed but there are folks who this bill does help... especially volunteers who were NOT well paid for their service, nor do they have a state pension.
When push comes to shove I always give the benefit of the doubt to our military (the average joes who put their lives on the line, not the generals or paper pushers), police, firefighters.
I still don’t know what to think of this bill. I’m still researching it. It doesn’t add to the deficit. It’s paid for by “closing a tax loophole” for foreign countries doing business in the US. I’m looking at that right now to see if it’s really the job killer the Chamber of Commerce says it is.
