Paramedics make around what nurses make.

EMT's are a different and have minimal training for their minimal pay.

I am not saying they are not underpaid, almost every profession today is underpaid compared to how workers were paid just a generation ago.

Maybe in Louisiana where everyone get paid crap, but most nurses make significantly more especially when you factor in shift differentials $3hr evening, $5/hr nights, $15/hr weekends, and those compound

EMT-P's don't make anywhere near what a RN makes. That's why many continue with education to RN.

EMT-B's and I's are overworked and underpaid cannon fodder. Many come and go.
