Sen. Ted Stevens suggested last week that New York City's cops and
firefighters should work overtime without pay as a wartime sacrifice. "I
really feel strongly that we ought to find some way to convince the people
that there ought to be some volunteerism at home. Those people overseas in
the desert � they're not getting overtime. ... I don't know why the people
working for the cities and counties ought to be paid overtime when they're
responding to matters of national security."
Stevens, R-Alaska, had just voted for tax cuts that will give those who make
a million dollars a year $92,000 more to spend on polo ponies. Some must
sacrifice more than others.
