Voters to decide on Eugene fire fee as city faces $11.5 million budget deficit. It’s refreshing to know that someone had the common sense to get enough valid signatures and force this onto a ballot. As I mentioned earlier, it should be enshrined in every tax-based American metropolis that one of the primary purposes of your tax dollars is to put out a fire should your house or business become involved in one. Simple right? Here comes the rub: elected Democrats. They siphon off tax dollars that’re supposed to be used to put out your house fire so they can take care of bums and wetbacks. On top of that, if you work in Oregon, they’re usin’ money outta your check so bums can ride a bus, and if you have a cell or house phone, you’re payin’ for a free phone they can use while they’re takin’ that free bus ride.
