Are You Buying What Gov. Christie is Selling?

January 11th, 2011   (206 views )

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) - New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie has laid out
an agenda of education and pension reform in his first State of the
State speech.
The Republican governor said Tuesday that big changes are needed
in the year ahead for New Jersey to remain affordable.
Christie used the 38-minute speech to outline his plans to
overhaul teacher tenure, close poor-performing schools and fix the
teetering public pension system.
He also hinted at the tax breaks he'll propose next month.
Christie took office a year ago after winning an upset victory
over incumbent Democrat Jon Corzine.
Christie began by leading a moment of silence for victims of the
Arizona shooting.

.. I dont know why we label it "selling" but rather as policy


.. With that said we need some real policy changes in NJ, we CLEARLY need to change the direction of goverment, taxes, spending etc. We need business to come back hire people and have homeowners and people prosper and not just unions/interest groups.


.. For to long we have kicked the can down the road, the amount of $$ for union pensions is UNSUSTAINABLE. I have family in Bergen County and Westchester counties and the $$$ is a HUGE BURDEN on the working people


.. I support Gov Christie and hope we can get these outrageous costs down and to have the state and taxpayers prosper once again, were all in this together not just the special interest unions

RE: poor-performing schools

The TEACHER UNION(S) AND THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD GO AFTER THE MEDIA--THE TELEVISION AND THE MOVIES, ETC., REGARDING HOW THE STUDENTS ARE PORTRAYED AND ACT--WHICH THE KIDS IN THE REAL WORLD EMULATE AS 'COOL.' MIGHT STIMULATE THE ECONOMY IF THEY DRESSED RESPECTFULLY.

E.G., a band, which just makes a lot of noise screaming, called Nichles dresses in dirty raggy jeans. If a band 'makes it' so that it can play in times square on New Years Eve, at least they should dress in decent clothes, not holely, torn up dungarees--no respect.

HE is out of touch on how to accomplish this. Sure there is a problem but there is a way to do this with mutual cooperation of unions,the legislature and municipalities. I am sick of hearing that the police, teachers, firefighters amd state workers are always the bad guys. Everyone needs to do their share and that includes paying back the money stolen from the various pension systems by the state, county and local governments who used that money to falsely lead the tazpayers to believe they balanced budgets and curbed tax increases.

There is something very fishy here because state governments are going after Pensions just like Sears/Kmart did to all their employees.

People in Sears after working 20 plus years lost Pensions.

Trenton is totally corrupt just like Albany.

Christie and Cuomo are facing the same "Powers That Be" like Barack "Corporate" Obama.

The wealthiest few always wins and the 99% of Americans always lose.

I have witnessed that service fees for internet degree gurus tend to be a terrific value. For example a full 4-year college Degree in Communication with the University of Phoenix Online consists of 60 credits at $515/credit or $30,900. Also American Intercontinental University Online gives a Bachelors of Business Administration with a whole course requirement of 180 units and a tariff of $30,560. Online degree learning has made obtaining your diploma been so cool because you can certainly earn the degree in the comfort of your abode and when you finish from office. Thanks for all the other tips I have really learned from your blog.

I've been surfing online greater than 3 hours lately, yet I never found any attention-grabbing article like yours. It is pretty value enough for me.

An added important aspect is that if you are a mature person, travel insurance regarding pensioners is something you need to really contemplate. The more aged you are, the harder at risk you happen to be for getting something negative happen to you while abroad. If you are certainly not covered by some comprehensive insurance, you could have a number of serious problems. Thanks for discussing your ideas on this weblog.

Thanks for your article. I also believe laptop computers are getting to be more and more popular currently, and now are sometimes the only type of computer included in a household. The reason is that at the same time that they are becoming more and more very affordable, their working power is growing to the point where they can be as strong as desktop computers from just a few in years past.
