In Your Opinion, What Is Holding USA EMS Back?

Yes Sir Chief of the World

Saying " Man, let's just stick to the topic. " isn't being overly commanding.

I don't want to ruin the thread more by going into that, but just know comments like that are common both here and in the real world (and not just the harsher world of EMS, but in casual social situations or even softer environments like school). If you're taking them as offensive, then something's off....

Hmm what is holding EMS back?

Para-Gods that look down on others who are not perfect in their eyes.

See you're going back to the bashing.

Look, you blew up and were called on it, you even got some crap for it. Next time don't make sure a big deal out of it and keep moving forward. You're taking the easy way out by just throwing out a para-god insult.

Define paragod.

Let's not even. Let's just get back to the discussion.

Speaking of eyes, are you blind? Two of the three people you are talking to right now are EMT-Bs. And when you make your shortcomings so painfully obvious like this, you're just asking to have them pointed out for you.

Define paragod.

. paragod

(1) a prima donna paramedic with a "god complex" who thinks he/she is smart despite being an incompetent fool

(2) any paramedic who is more concerned with his ego than his patients, regardless of skill level or talent

(3) an otherwise competent paramedic who is an egomaniac

Good, so we don't any of those in this thread (you have to have read more than a hundred of each person's posts to properly decide that, noting their motives and styles), so let's MOVE ON....unless there's more pleasure taken in causing a big deal out of stuff.

EMT-B's yes they may, but I made the points, and I can see why EMS cannot get organized.

No one wants to agree, there that is my point why EMS is so out dated.

Again, you don't have a clue.

All of us apparently agree that firemonkeys suck. That's some significant agreement there for you to completely overlook. If you put more effort into clear communications than snappy come-backs, you might notice a lot of agreement here.
