only if comparison is simply as ever during Malloy's reign of error. Much as Christie wants NJ comparisons linked to just his "reign of error".

You have to take this rating with a grain of salt since it is from a business media organization. You have to laugh at this when you look at some of the facts including a significant amount of new jobs being added here and major investments being made by companies. Coupled with tax cuts and a reduction in state work forces to reduce costs, it is questionable to me why we dropped so dramatically. I am not saying we are as business friendly as we could or SHOULD be but I do find the rating a little questionable. Jay

Whose "proposal" of more jobs sound better. The problem with politics, a lot of promises with not much delivery.
