On this on New York City tax payer's dime.

Via GateWay Pundit in article titled NY City Workers Planned Their Slow Response to Record Snowfall As a Protest to Budget Cuts

“They sent a message to the rest of the city that these particular labor issues are more important,” said City Councilman Dan Halloran (R-Queens), who was visited yesterday by a group of guilt-ridden sanitation workers who confessed the shameless plot.

Halloran said he met with three plow workers from the Sanitation Department — and two Department of Transportation supervisors who were on loan — at his office after he was flooded with irate calls from constituents.

The snitches “didn’t want to be identified because they were afraid of retaliation,” Halloran said.

“They were told [by supervisors] to take off routes [and] not do the plowing of some of the major arteries in a timely manner. They were told to make the mayor pay for the layoffs, the reductions in rank for the supervisors, shrinking the rolls of the rank-and-file.”

Among the victims of this crime: A newborn baby died after waiting nine hours for paramedics to arrive.

And here is a video of the City workers damaging a tax payer's car at that tax payer's own expense via YouTube with 2.2 million hits since 12/27/2010. The original video embedding has been turned off so this another video with only 6 thousand views. Here is link to 2.2 million YouTube original video I believe. Warning: when New Yorkers get upset they cuss some. I don't mind the cussing so much as using the name of God in vain.
