Another day, another corrupt Marxist-democrat exposed!
From The Freedomist:
According to Ron Williams in The News Journal, when Chris Coons served as the President of the County Council, he diverted untold millions of taxpayer dollars as payoffs to his political buddies and top staff. Coons did this by exploiting a loophole in the county's pension program.
The loophole was originally meant to attract new county police officers, but Coons decided to use it as a cash cow to pay off his political hacks:
It started as a legitimate way to recruit experienced cops onto the then-fledgling New Castle County Police Department. Municipal police officers with a few years service in say, Newport, could join the county force and get those Newport years credited toward a county pension. Then credited years were expanded into government service, still not a bad idea for high level, politically appointed executives who seldom accumulated enough time for a pension before the next administration came in.
But then something went very wrong. The New Castle County pension plan became a cash cow for every political hack and hangers-on in various administrations. Come work for the county for a few years, purchase pension credits at your old lower salary at 5 percent on the dollar and retire at a nice fat pension on your new six-figure salary. (Ron Williams, Op-Ed, "NCCo Pension Plan Was The One To Die For," The News Journal, February 14, 2007)
Coons likes to brag about how he closed the loophole, but, not surprisingly, he leaves out the embarrassing part where he grandfathered in his buddies, wasting untold millions of taxpayers hard-earned cash:

"Coons Voted To Open A Pension Loophole That Would Have Allowed County Employees To Buy Into The Pension System, Or To Transfer Credit From Other Government Service.
Coons Has Closed The ‘Loophole’ That Contributed To That Burden. First, However, He Saw To It That His Buddies And Top Staff People — And All Six Of The New County Council Members And Their Staffs — Were Grandfathered Under That Loophole Which Has, And Will, Cost Taxpayers Millions Of Dollars"
"No one knows how many times the County Pension Board rules have been changed to accommodate a particular employee who had political connections to a county executive or County Council. We do know that the so-called loophole has been opened and shut by at least three county executives. Coons was the latest to open it, in 2003. But he’ll also remind you that he closed it in December with needed refinements that make it work like a real pension plan. But those changes came after Coons made
Hack…

Three of Coons’ top staffers directly benefited from this loophole. Each served less than 3 years with the County and retired with salaries above $125,000:
Former Special Services Director Rich Przywara will receive his pension at age 55 (currently he is 47) because the pension board applied years-of-service credit for his work time at West Chester (Pa.) University — formerly West Chester State Teachers College.

This is quite typical of the Marxist mentality. They want to tax everything that moves, but make sure their cronies escape the wrath of Big Government.
Look how Barack Obama has destroyed so many lives, while enriching his peeps. Obama has devastated everyday, average Americans, while funneling billions of dollars and favors to his union buddies, who he owes his entire career to.
That is what wealth redistribution is all about. Steal from the workers, give it to the elites, who will then dribble pennies on the dollars to their enslaved peons, in exchange for votes, keeping the rest for themselves.
Welcome to the Glorious Communist Revolution .... suckers!
Delaware, and the Republic, can't stand one more Marxist in Washington. Do the right thing, say NO to the Obama-Coons-Marx Axis of Despair ....
... Send Christine O'Donnell to the United States Senate.
