The only difference is that Christie is in a position to do something about it. The wage gap between the Fortune 400 and the rest of us is becoming unsustainable. The only real way out is either revolution or our elected officials getting off their fat assess.

Nice, big, hefty raise so that you won't have to deal with it again until you're out of office and won't have to anyway.

On a serious note, its not like the cost of living in NJ is high or anything. You can make a decent wage and still struggle in this state. I don't know how anybody making the minimum wage here can hope to get by for long. Did he deliver this pronouncement from his mansion in Mendham?

minimum wage with no perks or benefits.

They work for corporations and Wall Street.

Why should our tax dollars be wasted on their sorry useless asses ???????

Let Wall Street and the corporations foot the bill.

They own they government.

They should pay the politicians.

He would starve on minimum wage on food alone. Costs more that $350.00 a week to feed this asshole.
