New Understand the issue
the budget that the legislature rejected was HIS budget. So while not having an alternative is problematic and makes the legislature culpable in this, Corzine's budget did nothing to address the glut of state payroll, which is what HAS to occur to fix the issue. He is (mr no special interest) in bed with the state union. He has been just as bad at placing people in high payroll jobs. His latest trick??? Make a public spectacle of eliminating positions..then a very quiet rehiring of the SAME PEOPLE in different capacities and the same or higher salary.

And in his first "crisis situation"...he's completely blown it.

So while it appears he is saying the "right thing". He's TELLING IT TO HIMSELF!

Imric's Tips for Living
  • Paranoia Is a Survival Trait
  • Pessimists are never disappointed - but sometimes, if they are very lucky, they can be pleasantly surprised...
  • Even though everyone is out to get you, it doesn't matter unless you let them win.


Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,
As hopeless as it seems in the middle,
Or as finished as it seems in the end.

New I'd say this makes them even.
and Christy's gone. By the end of this guy's term, we may be praying for her to come back. Lord knows the last guy made her look good (and butch, too).

There is his proposal as far as I can tell. He proposed 2B in cuts, he says...yet state spending is estimated to rise over 4B..and he says this must be done via sales tax.

His brethren aren't much better..they did cut spending a bit more than JC...but want to raise the income tax to cover.

Nobody wants to take on the state workers...who have benefits far exceeding those in any private sector and who in many cases are being earned by people who did nothing to earn them except be related to someone in Trenton.
