Gov. Chris Christie called Tuesday for an imminent state takeover of Atlantic City, saying the seaside gambling resort is incapable of getting its finances together after years of overspending.
Bankrupt casinos.
Shocking
Wonder if this is an oblique attack on Trump, even though he’s gotten out of AC?
But resorts built next to the cold, filthy Atlantic, in smelly, polluted Mafia-infested northern NJ. What could go wrong?
Another great NJ government story. Ask how the state takeover of Camden is going.
A government takeover? Are they kidding?
Too Big to Fail???
Let it fail
It is a liberal cesspool of low lifes anyways
ROFL!!!
went to the link.
29 words. :}
Actually AC was closely affiliated with the Mafia out of Philadelphia for quite a long time.
From what I have seen of the Flint MI “lead in water” crisis (which isn’t really a crisis at all, except in the media)
Republican governors should NEVER take over the problems, or assume responsibility for, problems caused by years of progressive-left corruption and politics.
Hold on there!
New Jersey?
The mob?
Casinos?
Those are some pretty big accusations there!
(Garbage disposal, landfills, trucking, construction, pizza joints, Italian restaurants.... I could go on. I lived in NJ for 8 years.)
Let it fail. How much of the Atlantic City government is affirmative action?
You forgot delicatessens. I know, I worked for them for three years.
40 years too late....
All of it is
It is a disgusting hole
Nothing gets done without a paper bag full of cash
That is how liberals “rule”
Dahoser,
This really turned me against the fat boy.
And i could care less the reason why the fat boy felt a need to hug the quota boy.
I don't see it that way. In my opinion Trump didn't fail. Atlantic City failed, by every metric. It was a cesspool before the casinos got there and once the casinos came it remained a cesspool. Atlantic City did nothing to clean itself up with all those casino revenues flowing to who knows where.
This is due to the anti-smoking ordinance passed via the casino unions.
The smoke bone is connected to the gamble bone.
Why drive to AC from NYC when two of the largest casinos in the world are in Connecticut just north and the Indians allow smoking?
100% traceable to the unions.
