This was from a tea party in Sterling Heights, MI on tax day April 15, 2010. The interview is with Mark Docherty, president of Local 1557 International Association of Firefighters. He is supporting a tax increase to protect pensions that the private sector does not get, as well as healthcare benefits after retirement that the private sector also does not get. A decision will be made in 2 weeks.

  • where do we get the money for these servisces if we are bankrupt due to our empire overseas?

  • again the interviewee shows how dumb the interviewer is.... to the interviewer, what point did you prove. I was further educated on the matter by the interviewee... are u libral in disguise and showing how really educated the left side is compared to the right because you are doing a really, really good job.

  • The Tea Party wants to cut your pay government workers. They want you to take the cut so that the rich can pay less taxes. The also want to lower government wages so that they can erode the wage base.

    Great job in explaining this clearly and persuasively.

    You should be in opposition to the Tea Party, they are anti worker and anti union.

    How did your vote turn out?
