There are 2,112 line items in New Jersey’s budget and we have reviewed every one of them. For some we recommend a cut. For some, we ask that they stay intact. For still others, we propose reform. And for those that are not essential, we recommend elimination. Due to the elimination of those unnecessary programs, there will be as many as 1,300 layoffs, beginning January 1, 2011.
That's not good. He needs to get above 4000 layoffs in January just to tread water for this fiscal year.

Trying to fix what the democrats have done year after year cannot be fixed so quickly.
After the first purge, I'll bet he finds more places to cut and they will go too.
