She basically says that Obama's tax plan will lead to a communist state. She doesn't use the word 'communist', but she doesn't have to.

Well, I guess since trying to label Obama a 'socialist' didn't work out, trying 'communist' was the next likely choice.

So the answer is endless taxation?

Spare me the people going without services bit. The out of this world benefits are what is fueling this. Whatever the meltdown does to their pensions, taxpayers (who also have bills to pay) have to make up the shortfall. Tell me where in private industry your medical benefits are fully paid. If they retire not only do they get a pension (which many folks do not have & which thanks to a great way of computing it is sometimes greater than their salary) but their medical benefits are paid for also for life. Add up the total compensation package & the cost is astronomical. The big 3 automakers tired the medical benefits after retiring & it basically bankrupted them.

As far as how hard they work, I see cops alledgedly looking for terrorists talking amongst themselves or to any pretty girl who passes by. I see the same cop car every morning on the way to work & the cops are sleeping. I work near a garbage transfer station & see sanitation trucks stacked up (motors running)& the workers reading or sleeping or actually playing ball amongst themselves.

Please spare me the tears. Try sheding a tear for the middle class slowly being taxed out of the city they love while others reap the benefit of their sacrifice.

Everyone will be taxed more but city workers are not supposed to sacrifice & their salaries keep going up without interruption. I guess sacrifice does not apply to municipal workers.
