New Jersey math is to save $750 million by increasing the cost of public employees by 26%,” Egea said. “A public employee whose salary is $50,000 would normally receive $12,500 for a three-month period. Under Senator [Stephen] Sweeney's plan, the worker would receive a 26% salary increase to $15,800."
Egea said that increase would include $5,000 in salary during the furloughed period, funded by NJ taxpayers, while accruing pension and health benefits; $3,000 in state unemployment funds reimbursed by federal stimulus dollars; and $7,800 in supplemental federal unemployment benefits.
Only an insane NJ assembly in an insolvent, deficit burdened, socialist bent, sanctuary state would consider raising salaries when they are broke.
Let the children bear the burden? OR do they think the US will bail them out?
? How can we recall the entire rotten bunch of them?
