Education isn't the only factor here. There is no rule saying that "since you have a certain level of education you can't make over this amount." Look at the bigger picture. What's the job like, the hours, the stress, and the other factors. Education isn't the be all end all in determining salary. A lot of it depends on industry more so than education. And since the paramedic/EMT doesn't really have a industry it's tough to them to determine what they are worth salary wise. I bet there is a lot of truck drivers that make more than someone with 4 years of university.
