Reactions to NJ Republican Governor's new budget: disaster for all but rich.
Many see his cuts in social programs as disasterous - one states "tax cut for the rich, tax increase for everyone else".
Governor Christie wants to increase tax on hospitals to provide money for hospitals, wants to eliminate state aid for mental health programs, lay off workers in schools, including teachers. He will end payments to adults who are "able to work", end help to lower income seniors to pay for prescription drugs.

He wil cut taxes for the rich.

This is what you get when you vote for a republican to "teach Democrats a lesson".

1. Sadly, get used to it
Because if as I figure the dems get their head handed to them in November, the reps will end up controlling many state houses at the time when many redistrict.
