5. "Temporary labor" firefighters?

Sounds like union-busting to me. I guess we want union labor in Wisconsin, but not Arizona?

Just because the governor's a douche is no reason to disrespect hard-working firefighters. Not only do they undergo a lot of training to do their jobs, those jobs are also a hell of a lot worse in triple-digit temperatures. These guys are heroes, and to suggest that untrained people can do those jobs is very disrespectful to them.
