Officer Barney Welfare

Police Officer Fox News Socialist
 
He was a police Officer in Bergen County New Jersey. He is a Republican and Trump lover.  He was very concerned that taxes went to “welfare,” and by welfare, he meant the
poor.  I never heard a person bitch so much about high taxes in New Jersey were.
 
Ironically,  he served as an officer for 14 years until he became “disabled.”  Now when I think of disabled,  I think of a person in a wheel chair,  a person who is blind,  a person with missing limbs who is dependent on Social Security in order to survive.
 
Officer Mario had been in an auto accident while on the job and found a doctor who declared him disabled.  For those not aware,  the police do not collect Social Security,  they have their own set of pension and insurance coverage.
 
When I think of disabled,  I think of a person who CANNOT WORK – PERIOD.  What he said was,  I can work a job, but just not in the police field.  For over 10 years he has been collecting $2300 a month tax free and getting the Cadillac Health Insurance Plan going to the NYC Hospital of Special Surgeries three to four times a year.
 
It was quite impressive to me to see a disabled person
-jog almost daily
-hit the punching bag daily
-work out with weights 3 x a week
-cut down trees with a chain saw
-chop wood with an ax
 -work on construction jobs
-working as a roofer
-work off of ladders as a house painter
-work as security on election days
 
Of course,  he hated paying taxes, although he no longer paid taxes anymore.  He hated the poor who collected welfare,  but it was okay for him to live off the taxes of the people of New Jersey HIS wages and HIS health care. 
 
He hated “socialism” never understanding that anything paid for by taxes is considered “socialism.”  He kept repeating the mantra that Capitalism is the best form of economics never able to admit the United States economy is a “mixed economy,”  one of a mixture of free market and socialism – one of the tenants of Economics 101.
 
I challenged him to google 75 Ways America is Socialist,  but his little cop mind could wrap around the idea, for it would go against all the years of brain washing Fox News had done to him.  At campfires he joked with people,  “Keep paying your taxes,  I need my pension and health care plan.”  He would laugh until I called him a Socialist.
 
He said he planned to move to South Carolina where he was going to buy four dogs and live in the land of low taxes. I saw him a few years later in New Jersey, having not moved yet,  because as the saying goes,  “He was all thunder and lightning,  but no rain.
 
For the guy who hated lazy scammers and takers,  he was the King of Gold Digging, living off the dole and scamming honest hard working citizen tax payers.
 
How many other police and firemen scam NJ tax payers?
