[quote=Anonymous]We have more firefighters than we need in DC, so this shouldn't be a big deal. There are not that many fires or other things where firefighters are needed. They usually come to medical emergencies, and it would be cheaper and better to have paramedics and EMTs and nurse practitioners and social workers depending on the type of call. For a lot of medical calls, sending someone an uber to a clinic would be a lot cheaper and result in appropriate care. We do need health care providers but a whole lot of 911 calls don't get the most cost-effective response now.[/quote]
