New Jersey is shutting down! haha, the whole government is closing it's doors here from bad finances. I need my car inspected but when am I going to be able to inspect it? You think it will be open again in August?

I get to stay home again tomorrow...i dont know if its a good thing or a bad thing yet...none of the state workers know if they are getting paid for it...even the people that are working arent guaranteed 
it sucks but something has to be done. I can't blame it on just corzine or the democratic party...both parties have dragged this out for 10 years to the point where we are in the hole pretty good right now...hopefully someone will flinch in the next couple of days, im not sure how many weeks we can hold out as a family on little or no income(my wife works for state gov't as well)

guess I'm lucky I get paid by the US government and not the state gov't. I do need my car inspected though. I guess the governor has a big plan that will get NJ back on their feet in a matter of hours instead of 6 days I think they said. Sucks for those 16 year olds trying to get their license this week lol. And for the families on vacation in Atlantic City

Yes the Casino's are privately owned but all casino operations are overwatched by the Casino Control Commision and enforced by the NJ State Police. The Hotel parts of the Casino should of been running smoothly. I used to work at the biggest piece of crap in AC. the Sands like 4 years back

Just like the casinos were supposed to lower all the taxes.
