Outrageous!!! If this does not shine light on how our state government needs to be significantly reduced in size, nothing does. I enjoy the occasional trip to Atlantic City, and slot machines closer to home would be something I would enjoy…. but….. The fact that the majority of revenue will be dedicated to the state employee pension fund is reason enough for me to say that if this were to make it onto the ballot, my vote will be a hard NO!!! Now if the legislation directs 30% of revenue to be used to pay down the state’s massive debts, then maybe I would reconsider. But sending 60% to state employee pensions is a non starter for me.
