Your budget scheme of the day!

Are they just going to throw out anything and see what sticks?

New Jersey public school teachers who accept revised contracts by May 22don't have to contribute 1.5 percent of their pay for health benefits for the 2010-11 school year, giving school staff an incentive to take a wage freeze or smaller raises, a report in the Press of Atlantic City said.
I want to see this memo. Off the top of my head:

No local teachers union has an incentive to take this unless they'll get MORE than 1.5% in offsetting salary concessions. No school board has an incentive to take this unless they'll get LESS than 1.5% in offsetting salary concessions.

See the problem?

Even if this makes no sense, it does seem to show that it's more important to Christie that the teachers take a pay cut than contribute to their health insurance. Hmm....
