From the Record:
North Jersey casinos concept gets early support, but experts warn that competition is fierce
Analysts are offering a tempered endorsement of the concept of two North Jersey casinos being championed by a number of state Democratic lawmakers, but they cautioned against overestimating returns in an increasingly saturated region for gambling.
More than a dozen casinos and racinos have opened in nearby states in the past decade, and more are likely to come on line in the near future in New York and Pennsylvania.
Still, the analysts say, North Jersey is a big affluent market, capable of supporting two casinos — in part by generating new business and attracting residents who now travel to casinos in neighboring states.
“Let’s recapture that revenue we’ve lost,” said Steve Norton, a private gambling consultant who once served as an executive with Atlantic City Resorts.
Roger Gros, publisher of Global Gaming Business magazine, said that the Resorts World Casino at Aqueduct Racetrack serves as a case in point of how a well-placed gambling venue can be a big winner. Centrally located in the middle of Queens, the site produced $435 million in tax revenue for New York last year, double what New Jersey received from its entire Atlantic City casino industry.
“You can see from Aqueduct how successful a casino can be when it comes into a large market,” Gros said.
The future of New Jersey’s casino industry is a huge issue for state officials, who in recent years have watched tax revenue plummet along with the fortunes of the state’s only casinos in Atlantic City.
Talk of an end to the seaside resort’s monopoly has increased dramatically since Governor Christie backed recent comments by state Senate President Stephen Sweeney, D-Gloucester County, that lifted a five-year moratorium on such discussions in Trenton. Sweeney suggested the issue may go to voters statewide in a November 2015 referendum, a move that would likely cut a full year off the timeline for the possible addition of casinos elsewhere in New Jersey.
The changing landscape was underscored by revelations last week of a $4.6 billion preliminary proposal for a 95-story casino, 100,000-seat auto racing track and giant Ferris wheel near the Liberty National Golf Club in Jersey City. Backers of a Meadowlands casino have tried to make sure that the sports complex in East Rutherford also remains a likely site for a casino.
Supporters of North Jersey casinos, including state Sens. Paul Sarlo of Wood-Ridge and Raymond Lesniak of Union County said the state treasury could reap at least $500 million a year, based on a tax rate of 50 percent or more on casino operations, similar to rates in New York and Pennsylvania.
Please remember that the word casino will put you in blacklist.
…and warm up the bulldozers.
No tax breaks, no PILOTs, no public funding.
By the way, that big stupid ferris wheel? That’s the dead giveaway this thing will never open.

Mayor Don Guardian, who could see a quarter of his city’s casinos close during his first year in office, said Atlantic City is in the midst of a difficult but necessary makeover from being a gambling resort to a multi-faceted destination where betting is only part of the allure.
Yeah right.

Food and beverage giant Pepsi has announced it will create America’s largest Ferris wheel in New Jersey. The 287-foot-tall “Pepsi Globe” will be incorporated into Meadowlands Xanadu, a unique sports, leisure, shopping and family entertainment destination in East Rutherford.
The Pepsi Globe will be green powered year round, with energy obtained through the purchase of wind power credits from a Texas generating plant, and it will be at least partially made from recycled materials. Pepsi will offer unique interactive experiences during the Pepsi Globe ride, which will last approximately 25 minutes for a full revolution and offer sweeping vistas of the New York skyline and the Hudson River. Groups of up to 20 visitors each will enter 26 glass-enclosed, climate controlled capsules for the ride of a lifetime.
As part of a 10-year tenant/naming rights agreement, Pepsi will implement a series of promotional activities and tie-ins, including the nationwide distribution of 450 million beverage cans featuring the Pepsi Globe at Meadowlands Xanadu, commemorating the wheel’s grand opening event.
When complete, Meadowlands Xanadu will encompass 94 acres and will feature five distinct Lifestyle Districts: sports, entertainment, youth culture, food and home, and fashion.
More than one-third of U.S. adults (34.9%) are obese.
he estimated annual medical cost of obesity in the U.S. was $147 billion in 2008 U.S. dollars.
Bring on the PepsiWheel. Just what we need.

And now, delays on the E. I think we should expand the role of government in our lives. There is nothing like trying to get to work early, only to see that hour eaten up by incompetent public service. Maybe we should hang some transit workers. The garage next to my building has a $20 tax included early bird special. That’s about what I pay to to commute on India rail per day. Tolls and fuel would add about $13 a day, but at least I wouldn’t have to rely on the unreliable. Might try on Wednesday. I heard it might rain which is like kryptonite to NJT.

Come on Anon… the bank has admitted to its misdeeds in great detail. What more do you want? Citigroup to pay for the healthcare of the uninsured?
Finally,
If they kill Atlantic City, I’m gonna have to take a pay cut. I’ve been absolutely on fire this year. I lost last year, but killed the year before. I won another 5K on Saturday night starting with $102. Also earned a $500 2-stroke leaf blower which I plan to use to wake up Gator, who got to see Michael Buble for free on Saturday night. We got a pretty incredible suite at Caesars Palace to boot which was almost as big as the first floor of our house.

From the petition link:
That means someone working full time for the federal minimum wage makes just $14,500 a year — which is below the poverty line for a family of four.
This is very misleading…
http://economy.money.cnn.com/2013/02/14/minimum-wage-history/
First, it’s comparing estimated individual income with the poverty level for a 4 member household, and the statistics clearly show that the minimum wage worker is typically not the sole provider for a 4 member household.
The statistics also show that if there is a minimum wage earner in a 4 member household, that income is in addition to the primary wage earner or earners, and that household generally has an income significantly over the poverty level.
“Only 11.3% of workers who will gain from an increase in the federal minimum wage to $9.50 per hour live in poor households…Of those who will gain, 63.2% are second or third earners living in households with incomes three times the poverty line, well above 50,233, the income of the median household in 2007.” (Sabia and Burkhauser, 2010)’

Sign me up!!! So sick of how white males are treated in this world. Like it’s our fault our ancestors dominated this world. Now we are forced to be at a disadvantage in life because our ancestors dominated this planet.
People crying about race need to stfu. You can go live in your own country if you don’t think it’s fair here. No such thing as a white country on this planet anymore, you know since we are such bad people, we let every other race into our countries. I wonder if the roles were switched, would these other people be as nice and understanding as the evil white man? Just funny, that they are trying to become citizens in white countries, why don’t they immigrate to countries with their people. Paris now has parts of the city where french women can’t walk down anymore because they will be attacked by muslim extremists. Can’t walk down the street in their own country because Muslims took it over. I wonder what would happen if white people went into brazil, zimbabwe, or china, and starting carving up their own neighborhoods and attacking the citizens of that country. What would happen? Please explain.

So what you are saying is that Anon is devoted to making 14, 15 and 16 year olds rich enough to afford Katy Perry tickets. Obama is still catering to the base I suppose. Whether it be poor people living below the poverty line or well off teenagers who need more iPhone apps.
Also from that link:
But how do these facts square with the image of a minimum wage worker often invoked by advocates of minimum wage increases—a single mother struggling to support her children?18
As Table 4 shows, only 11.1% of those who will gain from the proposed increase in the
minimum wage to $9.50 per hour are single mothers, down from 12.0% from the last federal increase, but even the stereotype that the minimum wage earner is the primary earner in the household is misleading.
Only about one-half of those who would gain from the minimum wage increase to $9.50 are the primary earners in their household, up from 43.4% from the last federal increase, but this difference is mainly because more of the gainers are living in one-person households or in households without children.
Look, at this point I’m all for raising the minimum wage, lets do it.
But don’t, for one second, think it’s going to do anything to reduce poverty, because it won’t.
http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2013/07/19/who-makes-minimum-wage/
People at or below the federal minimum are:
Disproportionately young: 50.6% are ages 16 to 24; 24% are teenagers (ages 16 to 19).
Mostly (78%) white; fully half are white women.
Largely part-time workers (64% of the total).
If you are going to have rich people in a capitalist system, there must be someone who is poor. Otherwise, the definition can not exist, just like good and evil. Trying to solve poverty is impossible. The only reason they should raise the min wage is to get the economy going. To set off the chain reaction that will eventually cause demand to increase, which will lead to investment opportunities.

But don’t, for one second, think it’s going to do anything to reduce poverty, because it won’t.
12% of minimum wage workers belong to a household with an income above $100,000.
Remember, we’re talking about a full 1.6 million workers here, which is less than 1% of the US population (actually, closer to half a percent).
Like I said, don’t for one second think it’s going to do a damn thing to reduce poverty.
I’m not really sure how raising the minimum wage gets the economy going Michael. For example:
Worker ‘A’ at Crown Fried Chicken in the South side of town gets a $1.75 an hour raise. At the end of his part-time week, this works out to an increase of $35. Unfortunately, to pay for the wage increase, the price of fried Chicken goes from $5 for the combo meal to $7. Worker ‘A’ has his rent raised by his landlord because his landlord likes to eat Crown Fried Chicken three times per day. This costs him an extra $6 per day or $42 per week. Poor Worker ‘A’ now ends up with a net loss of $7 per week as an unintended consequence of the minimum wage increase.
On the nicer side of town there’s teenager ‘A’. Her dad made her get a job so she wouldn’t have to rely on grandma for handouts when she gets out of college. She too works part time, but at Popeye’s Fried Chicken. Popeye’s is a much bigger chain then Crown and can more easily absorb the impact of the wage increase. Crown also prefers to hire teenagers as they are more reliable than the ghetto trash who constantly apply and have much less baggage. Teenager ‘A’ takes her extra $35 a week and uses it to buy more bandwidth for her smartphone since her brother hogs up all of the data in their shared family plan. Meanwhile, across town, less and less people are frequenting Crown Fried Chicken since they are now too expensive. Crown is forced to close down since it can’t compete with Popeye’s on price. Poor worker ‘A’ is now jobless and soon to be homeless.
I bet this is not what Obama intended, but it sure keeps the progressives on his side of the aisle so to speak.
By the way, I’m available for ghost writing if anyone has some propaganda to effectively promote. I’m pretty cheap too, but I don’t work for minimum wage.
1.6 million Americans make minimum wage, take out the kids and we are somewhere near 800k.
Meanwhile, we have 9.5 million Americans who want to work, but can’t find jobs.
So let me get this straight, what are you suggesting is the right way to reduce poverty? Raising wages? I see, makes perfect sense. How about we raise taxes too?
Obviously, the best way to reduce poverty is to subsidize the fried chicken industry. Though, health care costs might rise a bit.
Raising the minimum wage also means that many poor people on government assistance programs would become ineligible for it or would receive less aid from the government.
lol! somewhat relevant to today’s outbursts.

Police say Campbell ambushed them outside the Walgreens at Kennedy Boulevard and Communipaw Avenue, fatally shooting Santiago before officers returned fire and killed him.

Whether or not you like the law, it’s clear. I don’t like it but I know it. And I know hat happens if I break it.
Her fault was that she was too honest. She thought she was strictly complying. That’s the part that elicits sympathy. She won’t get jail time but she will plead guilty, lose her gun, lose a shiiteload of cash, and lose her permit in PA.
Personally, I’d love to see the PA AG say that they won’t recognize the NJ conviction and let her keep her permit but that isn’t hoping to happen.

When I worked at the federal court in Trenton, I heard of a lot of these cases. Usually, these were out of staters who were traveling through NJ. While federal law protects you if you are in interstate transit with a gun, police and prosecutors would look for any angle to say federal law didn’t apply. One common trap was to stop people who stopped for dinner or pulled off the highway for gas–NJ took the position that any departure from travel took you outside of the federal interstate transport protection. Christie gave some legislative clarity this year and passed a law that allowed de minimis departures– a whole fifteen minutes worth.
