Back To Normal

So, the Don-abee left for the left coast and things are back to normal in New Jersey.

Yeah, right. The government shut down.

Now, normally I’m in favor of the government not working. Read your newspaper sometime, then tell me you want more government.

Didn’t think so.

But the state shut-down in Trenton has put over 80,000 people out of work and shut down the lottery and the casinos. The casinos haven’t shut their doors since they opened them 28 years ago.

The only good that came out of this was the Governor forced the assembly to come into work on July 4. They were facing a shut-down and took the weekend off.

The Gov was elected in November. All of the legislators are up for re-election this fall. Let’s see what happens later this year.
