While on paper what they are paid may seem high but when you need to pickup the phone and call 911 because your family is in trouble do you want the person that is in their first month on the job or someone that has spent 20 years learning the craft coming to help?

You're missing the point. There's still a minimum salary needed to retain talent to reach 10, 20 years or whatever you need them for. I'd say the pay they receive is far in excess of that.
