Ed, I read about Chris Christie vowing to cut back the agreements with the unions and execute numerous layoffs. Our present number of 80,000 state employees is way over the limit. I agree with Chris — the number of state employees should be cut back by 15,000 people. I hope Christie gets in and powers through this. It should benefit the taxpayers of New Jersey.

Hmmmm. Number of state workers, 80,000. Number of Canada geese in New Jersey, 80,000. Wonder if the wildlife experts can give us a target number for the workers. —Ed. Note
