Do you want your firefighting to be like going to the DMV?

Good item from Tina Dupuy, editor of Mediabistro's FishbowlLA on the switch from private to socialized firefighting.

I did enjoy this dig in particular:

"Because Republicans (who are in the government) will readily tell you - the government never does anything right. Which explains why the most popular people in their Grand Old Party no longer hold any personally "taxing" jobs in the government (Mitt Romney, Mike Huckabee and as of Sunday, Sarah Palin), opting (fittingly) for private political gigs."

The government is so bad at doing things that I'll quit the government. Wag that dog.
