Now I am not a guy one would go to for his thoughts on the state of New Jersey’s budget nor do I really follow politics except for on the grand scale of things.  Yet regardless of all that Iv’e decided to weigh in my own thoughts on what is currently happening in the Garden State and whether or not it’s a bad thing.

I guess I should preface this by stating that I am a registered democrat and that I neglected to vote when we were electing our new governor. I guess Uncharted 2 was out by than and obviously that warranted my full attention… or whatever. But after a bit of searching on the old “google” I found a website that can explain this whole deal a lot more intelligently than I ever could.  http://www.app.com/article/20100211/NEWS/100211043/Gov.-Chris-Christie-takes-ax-to-New-Jersey-budget is probably where you would wanna go. But what it basically says in a nutshell is that the governor of New Jersey, Chris Christie plans to cut some pretty deep holes into some important industries. $475 million from the school district, increasing cost for state residents, declaring states of fiscal emergencys and apparently he’s outlining all of these deep cuts without dipping into the states $500 million surplus. How we can justify cutting that deeply into unemployment and school districts without touching all that extra cash seems like a mystery to me.

I guess you could say that Chris Christie is a crook but since he is a politician that would just be redundant. But even so, the current Governor has a slight resemblance to Marvels own Kingpin of Crime. Just with… you know… hair.
