This is copy and pasted from one of my earlier posts. I agree its not the end of the world, but I don't see it as meaningless.

" He is not leading by example, and asked for everyone else to make a cut. Why can't his staff.

However small you make think this is, it irrates people like me, who didn't have a problem with Christie or his cuts. I wanted to teachers to take a pay freeze and contribute to health care, but I expect Chrsities staff to do the same. If we all are going to suffer, good. If only some of us are going to suffer but not his own people, no way."

Look the $11 billion is going to be made up by cutting funding to the West Milford watershed and thousands of projects like it. These distractions are simply not going to save you. 3 years from now we will be talking about how Christie is going to steamroll the competition because of his fiscal intiatives. The entrenched guardians of the status quo will be defeated by him.

You guys can continue to get caught up in minutia but the cuts will keep on rolling and we will acheive fiscal sanity.

Sorry you fail....again.

So if all the teacher's salaries in the state of nj went from 71,000 a year to 75,000, would it not be a raise?

I bet if it was the teachers you'd have a fit right now.


I know its hard to understand, since you are so dense.

Henderson is on the list you posted earlier of the $100K+ earners in the Christie Administration.

You're right, I missed it the first time around.

Let me help you out here, I'll type slowly. You are appointed President of you company (unlikley but humor me). You decide to fire Mike and bring in Sally, Sally makes $10 more. Did Mike get a raise?

Also if the salaries of the staff remain flat (which it appears they have when you account for Christies salary and other new salalries) it doesn't matter if individuals got raises. I know it's a tough concept.

See it's easy to see when you are backed into a corner. You start with insults.


So, Sally doing the same job for 10 dollars more an hour? Yup

Did I make a smart move as president of a company? Nope.


You're angle is to say its not a "raise". It's silly and kinda childish. The average salary went up under Christie, even if you take out the 3 salaries in question. Its hypocritical.

Yes I see what you mean about insults. LOL

Another epic fail.

There will be thousands of West Milford watersheds and this trivia is a triffling. We will get fiscal sanity.
