Reply to comment by Metroncat in FDNY wants to up the cost of ambulance rides by more than 50% by NYY657545

That's hilarious. I'd say look on the bright side. Less people calling an ambulance for frivolous trips or calling a less expensive ride for themselves.

Many people who call an ambulance for frivolous trips, don’t have any money to pay for them in the first place. Once, in the span of a week, I saw an ambulance pick up a homeless dude, who ended up on back on the street the next day in a hospital gown. A few days later, they picked him up again. That is just one week.
