18 February 2011 - NJ Dems nix toll hike on due to Christie tunnel veto
So the story starts with Chris Christie cancelling the tunnel project due to cost overruns that the state cannot afford. I am a commuter to New York and frankly that project didn’t real;y make sense to me as it was going to drop passengers at Macy’s, two blocks from Penn Station. I also never understood [...]

31 January 2011 - Sheila Oliver’s two Jerseys: The one we live in and her Union and Pac purchased NJ
I came across an article entitled “A Tale of Two New Jerseys” written by Sheila Oliver on mycentraljersey.com. It was immediately obvious that that the article was a hit piece on Governor Chris Christie. For example, the writer rants as follows: It’s been painfully clear throughout Gov.

If this sounds a little like I wrote it to a local email list, it’s because I did. I’d like to reflect on where we get the money we spend on education. The “average taxpaying household” pays property taxes of about $12K per year. If that household has an average child in the school system, [...]

19 March 2010 - NJ: For all of you that don’t think the Governor should cut anything
While reviewing the Governors Budget in Brief summary today, I ran across the following chart. What it depicts is New Jersey budget spending since 2002. This diagram is more scary that I already thought. If you recall, we compared 10 years of budget in brief last year while reviewing Jon Corzine’s budget. And we showed [...]
