You know who else I think is under-appreciated?

Military personnel.

I've seen (and lived in) some of the buildings that they use. Talk about low standards!

Yeah, there are perks. But, wouldn't you want to give more to the military guys since they give so much? Or are willing to do so much?

Or what about fire/police/rescue personnel? There is talk around here to shut down a few fire stations.

I think that anyone that is willing to jump into a firefight, a burning house, or chase down criminals should get a lot more than what they get.

I understand that the people that do those things are there because they WANT to be there. But still.... it seems that as a show of appreciation, we as a country/city/county/state could give back just that much more...
