Benfits themselves and every instance where they are connected to government, they are overpaid.

I know it is poltically incorrect to say this, but police and fire are ultimately among the most over-paid out there. In the town where I was involved with politics back in CT, for every police opening there were well over 100 applicatant who met the basic criteria. That does not suggest that the police are under-paid.

The fire unions are the worst. Did you know that residential fires are down like 75% in the last 30 years? (do to better construction materials, etc) Yet, there are more firemen than ever.
