And to think it is all the school teachers fault. Who woulda thunk it?

Christie has pointed out that if the NJ teachers took a 1 year pay freeze and contributed 1.5% (One and half percent!) of their pay toward their health care plan-

he would not have to lay off any public school employee this year. Including the bus drivers and “lunch ladies” cited as victims in that pathetic teacher union “tax the rich” ad.

So yeah, for that one piece of this year's budget madness, maybe the ball IS in the teachers’ court.

If they paid attention to Maryland, they'd see that “tax the rich” COST the state money!

New Jersey has been owned and operated by the pinky-ring teachers union thugs for decades. I used to marvel at the government school buildings whenever I took the little league baseball team I coached over to Jersey for a game. They're Taj Mahals.

Actually it’s mainly the fault of leftist, vote buying, anti- American, tax and spend, political thugs. But as they tend to gravitate to unions and receive most of their campaign contribution from unions....
