Poll for closing State Parks

I know that there is a huge amount of protests going on over the projected closing of Parvin State Park in Cumberland County. Corzine's plan really does nothing to help the image of NJ, which has been tarnished enough.

Sorry if this is discussed here, I haven't had much time to go through too many threads. What is extremely upsetting is Corzine's plan to do away with the Department of Agriculture. This is one of the most absurd things I've heard of. The farmers and other folks that are still here deserve support, not elimination. At least until the politicians allow the developers complete free rein (as though they don't have it already) to put up more subdivisions with their McMansions on postage size lots. That seems to be the only thing the powers that be in NJ care about. Bet a lot of money changes hands on that one.

Sadly but true. Corzine and his band of thieves only care about pay to play, who gets the no bid contracts, taking care of his old friends from Wall Street with large contracts and sucking up to his base of voters- city dwellers, unions etc. Unfortunately farmers are last on his list of people that he will help. This is due to the fact that he can't put his cronies on the farmers payroll. Can you picture one of his politically connected flunkies getting a no show job on a farm milking cows.

Or better yet, shoveling s***. No wait, all politicians already know how to do THAT well.
