So what's wrong with that? The only thing the article says is occuring is

"The changes would place tighter controls on employers participating in the state's plans, including terminating their enrollment when they skip premium payments and penalizing them for joining and leaving the program within two years."

Doesn't it make sense to do so if those things are causing everyone's premiums to rise? I know Corzine's not the perfect governor, but I don't see a reason to jump on him for this one (yet).

This isn't about corslime, the health care industry is going to change very rapidly thanks to obama. Those changes are going to cost a lot of money which is going to be passed on to the little people as in higher costs and less coverage.

the health care industry makes obscene amounts of profit.

if they somehow figure out a way to pass along the costs (in order to maintain their unholy margins), it's not Obama's fault.

they are using the paranoia about Obama as a cover, in order to take advantage of the ignorant masses.

So what's your point? Which is it? Is it about Corzine, or is it not about Corzine?

Does anyone find it interesting that...

We have no money for health care,

We have no money for pensions,

No money for schools, or rebates, or unemployment insurance etc.,

But we have BILLIONS to by Farmland so rich people in the suburbs don't have to worry about their views being ruined by "riff raff" moving in next door. (that's me btw).

Someone, anyone, make this madness stop.

We need to rescue - restore the "middle class" in this State. They are either being taxed out or demoted. The poor have no power over the politicians.

How is moving riff-raff to rural and suburban areas going to clean up NJ's finacial mess? That's not making sense to me.

Figure out a way to take political power out of the hands of the public worker's unions and urban political machines.
