In Governor Christie latest budget he's putting 2.25 Billion dollars into our pension system that is the largest single payment than any Governor in the past has done and that includes the Democrat Governor's. I am part of the NJ pension system as a retired law enforcement officer.http://www.nj.com/politics/index.ssf/2014/02/christie_includes_225_billion_pension_payment_in_new_budget_rules_out_tax_hikes.html#incart_river

...should trust Christie with NJ pensions. I mean, his administration likely raided the funds and is seeking to divert more money: http://www.nj.com/politics/index.ssf/2014/02/state_ordered_to_release_guadgano_pension_probe_records_report_says.html
