Not if they need to park in town between flights. |

In the already most congested airspace in the country. Sounds like a winner. |
You're just so NEGATIVE! |

Either Christie is good at brinksmanship, or it is time to turn out the lights. |

Bill Baroni is giving Christie bad advice. It's a good thing Baroni's out of state goivernment now and we have the opportunity to replace Baroni (Christie's appinted Goodwin) |

Another bad decision by Christie putting Baroni as #2 at the Port Authority. |

Finally we have a governor making decisions for all of the taxpayers of of New Jersey which makes sense. Unlike his predecessor Governor Corzine who was beholden to what ever the unions wanted or needed even if it was bad for all of us here in NJ.

Dude, this has nothing to do with unions. This is about infrastructure. Ultimately, it comes down to if you work in NYC why would you live in NJ. The bridges and tunnels are crumbling. It is much easier to get into the city from Conneticut. Again, why live in NJ. Since you apparently will be the last one to leave, turn out the light. |

I second the "yawn" that Govenor Christie is a fat undisiplined man who has anger issues with our hardworking teachers and has thrown away $400,000 for our children because of his unresolved emotional issues with NJ's teachers union. |

Orginal Tunnel estimates were $8.7 Billion
Port Authority was contributing $3.0 Billion
Federal Government was contributing $3.0 Billion
New Jersey was contibuting $2.7 Billion
New York was contributing $0
The revised cost estimates were $9.7 Billion - $13.7 Billion
The port authority, Federal Government (who has $800 Billion stimulus fund) and New York were not going to contribute any further funding. Their expectation all cost overuns were to be born by New Jersey. Christie was willing to negotiate on how to share in cost overuns and bring down the prices. No other party would step in. The federal govrernment has the greatest ability to fund the project with stimulus money. Christie was doing the taxpayers of NJ a service trying to control uncontrolled spending and hopefully will find a better way to solve this in the future. Perhaps some of that money can be used to fund improved mass transit within New Jersey to keep jobs in NJ. |
