If Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno has been under investigation for pension fraud.....

[Walk away]

for the past two years, why is it being hidden from us? Why didn't the voters know about this before they elected this boardwalk mafia back into office? How did Christie manage to shut the press up about this?

3. "....Pension abuses are so RAMPANT in New Jersey that even the agency..

...investigating Guadagno has its own controversy.

Twenty-three supervisors and investigators for the Attorney General’s Office and DCJ are using legal loopholes to draw salaries and pension pay, New Jersey Watchdog found. On average, each pockets $164,000 a year — $96,000 in salary and $68,000 in pension...."

4. Are you serious?

Politicians are, because of their nature, allowed and encouraged to screw the public. We expect it and hardly ever support an intelligent, clean, hard-working candidate. Oh wait, maybe there aren't any to support. My bad.

Ah, maybe the Indian woman, Warren, and that Vermont Socialist, Sanders, got in because of some collusion... Oh wait, somebody said she lied about being an Indian. That leaves only Sanders. Wonder what he's hiding..

This is a long read but John V. Kenney was the master of corruption in Jersey. When most of this became public I had left the NJ Turnpike but believe me, Mr. Kenney was a big presence there. The Director (Bill Flanagan, Jersey City). This is so interesting and gives you a great insight into the culture. Even the Catholic Church go to enjoy the spoils...The old priests from Ireland go to visit the old sod one more time..on the tax payers dime..There are parts that are hilarious.
