Yea, I’ve heard the stories from there. It was best put by simply stating that every producing family has to provide for two families, themselves and some deadbeat family in Newark (or similar city).

...crappy, and Christie doesn’t seem to be able (or more likely want) to do a thing about it.

Christie has definitely helped with a 2% property tax increase cap; prior to that taxes could rise much more each year, and the government caste was growing exponentially. Now when teachers get 4-5% raises, those with the least seniority lose their jobs. Christie also stopped increasing the funds dumped into our urban welfare reservations; while Newark NJ was dealing with a record number of murders a few years back, they laid off 160+ cops because Trenton wouldn’t foot the bill anymore (Newark refused to raise property taxes to pay their own employees as the rest of NJ is expected to). This recent disastrous snow removal is probably tied to a lack of funds as well.

Whatever else people say about Christie, he certainly has all the right enemies here in NJ. NJ FReepers seem to have a higher opinion of him in general than those on the sidelines.
