      <![CDATA[Why is Mayor Bach and CSFD Rich Brown planning on taking jobs away from  AMR? How can CSFD folks that work part-time at AMR look at the crews they run calls with knowing their boss may be taking away AMR's jobs..So many now on CSFD started out at AMR ...shame on you all for not taking a stand for these people with family's and that you have known for years!

      <![CDATA[Dear Mr. Mayor,<br>
<br>
Your comment on public transit <a href="http://www.csindy.com/IndyBlog/archives/2013/01/22/going-somewhere-changes-to-city-buses-on-the-way" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.csindy.com/IndyBlog/archives/20&hellip;</a><br>
<br>
Why are you speding the money for CSFD to transport when our city already has an ambulance service that does this? Why not spend the time and energy to fight for public transit instead?

<br>
<br>
Please, if you are planning the force of CSFD city ambulance transport, which might involve some layoffs of crews from AMR be merciful, be fair, to these hard working individuals at AMR let them know ahead of time. AMR communicate with your people... the stress they and their families  are dealing with of wondering is so hard.

      <![CDATA[Government should support businesses, who in turn provide money to the system, including taxes to the government.<br>
 <br>
Private business will always be able to do a job for lower cost, because competition keeps them lean. Bureaucratic agencies have nothing to keep them from becoming ever-larger.<br>
 <br>
Also, if the city does this, there is no reversing it.
