Global Warming Again

Over the past few days, I have written some posts that I hope show you that the question of “Global Warming” and “Greenhouse Gases” is far from being answered.  Here is another site that I urge you to check out.  It is a petition drive that has been launched by two professors in Oregon.  Right now they have over 31,000 signatures of which over 9,000have Phd’s!  The statement is pretty simple, the whole idea of Global Warming/Greenhouse Gases is junk science.

Take a moment, see the petition, see who have signed it, see what branches of the sciences they come from.  Start to really think about this problem, do you want to believe the likes of Al Gore, or real scientists?

No matter what the idiots in Trenton think about Global Warming, just remember we are coming for you in November, but until then, “IT’S TAXES, STUPID!”

The Hudson River Railroad Tunnel

Thursday, it was announced that the federal government had approved giving $3 billion in federal funding to build the new Hudson River Railroad Tunnel.  Here is the link to the full story as reported in the Star Ledger:

It took me awhile to think about this, since some of the claims made did not make any sense, in light of the information that I had posted a few days ago.  At that time, the claim was made that 4,000 jobs would be created for the $8.7 billion that would be spent on this Choo-Choo tunnel.  If you did the math, each job would be created for $2,175,000.00 per job, or $310,000.00 per year over the seven year period estimated that the construction would take. Now, the claim is made that this project will create 40,000 to 50,000 jobs!  Well, lets do the math again.  If we can get 50,000 jobs, that would be $174,000.00 per job, or $24,857.00 per year of the project.  Now, that sounds great except for the fact that no construction worker in New Jersey would do the job for about 25 thousand a year.  so it seems that the 40,000 to 50,000 is just not a real figure on job creation.  Also, think about this, 50,000 is about the same amount of people who would fill Giants stadium.  Where are all of these people going to be working around this tunnel?

Another selling point being used to justify this project is the premise that 22,000 cars will be removed from the road because the drivers (and passengers) will start taking the train to work in New York City and spend their money there.  Well, if we divide 22,000 into $8.7 billion it will cost $395,455.00 per car to remove them from the roads leading to New York City.  That does not seem to be a good investment to me!  If this number is right, lets do another calculation.  If each car has one driver and three passengers, that would be four new passengers for the Choo-Choo Tunnel.  This would be about $100,000.00 per passenger cost.  Now, if the average Choo-Choo train fare was $10.00 round trip, and each person used the train 250 times per year, it would take 40 years to just obtain the fares to pay for the tunnel alone!

Give me a break, this whole Choo-Choo train tunnel idea is just one large pork-barrel project to appease the union construction workers and pay for play construction companies!  Plus, the $8.7 billion is what they want to borrow for these projects.  It does not include the interest that will have to be paid for the bonds that will be needed to actually get their hands on the money needed for this project.  Why not keep the New Jersey money, about $3 billion, and spend it to make New Jersey a more favorable place for companies to locate and create jobs here?

To Governor Stupidhead, our lunatic Senators and all of the other idiots in Washington D.C. and Trenton, “IT’S TAXES, STUPID!”

How much for that job!

Hi kids!  Remember how we use to talk about the Abbott Districts and the stupidity of that spending?  Well, we now have one that makes that program almost look good!  Do you know what it is called?  Well, it is the plan to build another railroad tunnel under the Hudson River.  Of course that does not sound cool, so let’s think up another name for it, how about “The Governor Stupidhead hole in the ground to throw taxpayers money into”!  I know, it is a little long, and if someone has a better name, please get back to me with it.  Until then, let’s call it for short, “Stupidhead’s Pit”.

Now many of you have read about the jobs that will be created by this project, right?  A number that has been thrown out is 6,000 jobs!  Wow, that sure sounds like a lot of jobs!  But let’s remember something, this tunnel is suppose to cost 8.7 billion dollars.  Now if you went to an Abbott district school, we will forgive you if you cannot do this math, but if you divide 6,000 into 8.7 billion dollars, you will know that each job will cost $1,450,000.00!  I know that union construction workers are expensive, but for this job, they must be hiring from Tony Soprano’s workhall.

Is this something that we can really afford in New Jersey?  Why should we be spending this money just to make it easier for people to get to New York City and make their economy stronger?  If we need another method of mass transportation under the Hudson River, just convert the third tube of the Lincoln Tunnel into a light rail line and run it to the 41st street bus terminal, but let’s get this idea of this tunnel off the table, and replace it with business tax cuts that will generate real wealth, and stop the rape of the taxpayer in New Jersey!

To Governor Stupidhead and the other idiots in Trenton, the clock is ticking so line up your next jobs now, because we are taking the capital back in November and returning back to the citizens of New Jersey.  Until then though, just remember, IT’S TAXES, STUPID!”

This is going to hurt

I am sure that most of you are aware that Governor Stupidhead unveiled an aggressive plan to reduce “Greenhouse Gas Emissions” in New Jersey.  It is simple, Stupidhead’s administration will tell you what type of cars you will drive, where and when development will occur and how electricity is produced.  In other words, Comrade Stupidhead will be dictating how you live your life!

But, he has not told you how much this will cost you.  Want a ballpark estimate?  A back of the napkin, round figure is a minimum of $8,000 per family of four!  Just remember, you will pay more for yourelectric power, gasoline (if he will let you have it), oil, food (it’s trucked kids), paper, coffee, etc.  Get the idea?  Every damn thing you now purchase will be jacked up in price (along with more sales tax) because of an idiot idea being passed around about carbon emissions!  Global warming is a myth and more and more of the world scientists are proclaiming just that.  But, Comrade Stupidhead does not care about that at all, because the all wise idiot knows best!

Come November, have you bags packed  Comrade Stupidhead because you are going out with the trash, but until then just remember “IT’S TAXES, STUPID!”

Let’s spend our money for New Jersey

Once again the building of a new railroad tunnel under the Hudson river is being rammed down the throats of New Jersey taxpayers.  This tunnel is being “fast-tracked” in order to provide “Jersey jobs.”  What a crock of crap!  We are going to spend 3 billion dollars and except for a few construction jobs, that will most likely go to New York unions, we will get NOTHING!

Who will this tunnel benefit?  Well that is not hard to figure out, it will benefit New York City and New York City only!  At least 99.9% of the people who commute go from New Jersey to New York City every day.  There, they work and spend money to benefit New York City, not New Jersey.  But Governor Stupidhead wants you to believe that building this tunnel will benefit New Jersey citizens.  Of course, Corzine does not tell you that these New Jersey citizens are the few who commute to these jobs.  For the rest of us, we will get nothing from this tunnel, except for the outrageous bill to build it.

Instead of spending this 3 billion on the tunnel, how about spending it to make New Jersey cities places that businesses would want to relocate to?  Then the citizens of New Jersey would not have to commute to another state to work.  They would spend their money here.  They would use services of other New Jersey businesses.  Wealth would be created here, for the betterment of New Jersey taxpayers, not New Yorkers!  Call your assembly representatives, call your state senators, call the governor’s office and demand that New Jersey spend money for the benefit of New Jersey and not for other states!

For Governor Stupidhead and all of the other idiots in Trenton, we are coming for you next November, but until then just remember, “IT’S TAXES, STUPID!”

What Red Jersey would not post!

I wrote a post for Red Jersey in which I hoped to show just how out of touch the current leaders are in Trenton.  Just 5 years ago the discussion was about raising the gas tax, and “eliminating” tolls on the Garden State Parkway.  You may read the article if you follow this link to the New York Times:

http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9802E2D7173AF934A15752C1A9659C8B63

But I made a terrible mistake, and the post was censored.  I made the comment that Jim McGreevey had a “gay moment” when this proposal was made.

Now, I do not have a problem with gays, or basically anyone else in the world who is not trying to kill me, or take all of my money.  I do have a problem though with a governor who was being blackmailed because of his sexual orientation so much so that he placed his lover in a position that compromised all of our safety.  And I will not at anytime refuse to remind everyone just what he did!  Plus, maybe he wanted to save a few coins when he went on a pickup run at the rest areas.

But this once again gets us off the real reason for the post in the first place.  Here in New Jersey, in less than 5 years, we have gone from the possibility of eliminating tolls to a governor who will not be happy till he gets them increased!  What a sorry state of affairs we have here in New Jersey.

To all the idiots in Trenton, “IT’S TAXES, STUPID!”
