Are you going to defibrillate your father when he needs it? Are you going to perform advanced airway maneuvers to clear a choking kid's airway? Are you going out on the line to dig a fire break? I highly doubt it...
You're right, they should cut back. But not EMS or fire or public safety. They usually don't get hit but I think the public affairs offices, tourist development offices, and film resource bureau's should lose their funding before you take a single paramedic or firefighter off shift.
