Which is why the Healy scumteam was soooooo very eager to push his contract through ahead of this move. I'm sure Epps will, in turn, be handing off some $ to the mayor's legal fund. arrrggghhhh. frickin aggravating.

It is not that simple. Political contributions, or anything of value, given to a politician (or funnelled to a politician's campaign fund) in exchange for a promise or something the "donator" might not otherwise be entitled to (such as favorable tax abatements, changing in zoning, etc) would be a bribe. Any favorable treatment, or promise given by the politician, in exchange for goods, services, cash, etc., should be considered a bribe. The problem/question comes in when someone just likes a politician, provides money to their campaign, and then receives favorable treatment (if you can believe there are such "innocent" donations). That is why the pay to play legislation essentially eliminates the middleground.

Healy can manipulate the stats any way he wants. I have a friend who's car was broken into twice. Came out and stuff was missing and the window broken. Didn't report it, since the cops wouldn't do anything anyway.
If everyone becomes apathetic like that, the crime rate will drop to zero. From a personal perspective, following the news and events in JC, I think it's getting worse.

Councilman Steven Fulop rips Jersey City as 'belly of the beast' for corruption

Councilman Steven Fulop rips Jersey City as 'belly of the beast' for corruption BY Karen Angel DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER Thursday, November 12th 2009, 9:25 PM Photo by Kevin Hagen Jersey City Councilman Steven Fulop, critic of political establishment, stands in front of City Hall. The problems in Jersey City City Hall run deep. In the recent federal sting that netted 44 public officials and others on corruption charges in New York and New Jersey, 18 had ties to Jersey City. Among the 18 were six city employees and one elected official. And, according to Councilman Steven Fulop, "it's just begun." "This is still unfolding, and some of those people are likely to share a lot of information with the government," said Fulop (D-Downtown Jersey City), who proclaimed himself an independent voice because he is the only Jersey City elected official who didn't run on Democratic Mayor Jerramiah Healy's ticket. Among those arrested for taking bribes from a snitch posing as a developer were Jersey City deputy mayor Leona Beldini and council president Mariano Vega - people with "very high access," Fulop said. "There's a culture of entitlement in New Jersey, and in many ways, Jersey City represents the belly of the beast. It's about self-service instead of public service," he said. Several of Healy's allies were arrested for accepting funds for the mayor's reelection bid, but Healy was not charged, and has denied any wrongdoing. Still, there have been calls for him to step down, including from residents at an Aug. 4 rally of about 300 on City Hall led by Fulop. Healy said he would "sign an executive order requiring all city directors and employees who participate in the development process to undergo mandatory ethics training." But some skeptics were not convinced. "It's hard to say if [Healy] can lead," said businessman Michael Yun, president of the Central Avenue Special Improvement District. "He's best friends with the deputy mayor." Fulop said the mayor should enact such reforms as a "pay-to-play" ordinance targeting developers - which Fulop introduced in the council - and abolishing the practice of letting council members hold county jobs, as six currently do. Healy responded that he has "directed the Law Department to review campaign reform in other states and other municipalities and to meet with local civic groups who are committed to pay-to-play reform." Meanwhile, said Yun, "The city government should work hard to regain their credibility. They should understand that they should follow the rules and regulations before they tell the people what to do." kangel@nydailynews.com Read more: http://www.nydailynews.com/ny_local/y ... =1&page=all#ixzz0WkWT21Je

Two things-win or lose, this political whore will be allowed to use the funds because this is civil, not criminal.
Also, $4K for legal fess is incredibly low, given the time that must've been expended. If she wins, she'll be giving them a huge city retainer. Can you spell kickback? She can in two languages! Everyone get ready to chant-Viva la puta!

Does anyone think all of the folks that took bribes to put in Healy's "campaign" fund did so for some altruistic reason without Healy's direction and complicity. It's an absolute travesty that he and his minions are able to continue to in office; and now he's bringing in another idiot.

Skill? Really,? I think a crossing guard is, at most, a convenience--for little children, a necessity. They don't work full days. They are entirely unskilled. In many towns they are volunteer jobs that the elderly take on to stay active. They absolutely don't deserve to be paid the same as someone putting their lives on the line every day.

I just find it amazing that a crossing guard receives the same salary as a cop!!!!
What kind of connections do you need to get that job? I assume all the new hires are somehow related to our elected representatives, or have at least given $$$ to them (legally or not). Budget gap means salary losses but city gets 53 hires Monday, October 05, 2009 By AMY SARA CLARK JOURNAL STAFF WRITER Facing a $40 million budget gap and imposing mandatory furloughs on most municipal workers, Jersey City Mayor Jerramiah Healy has nonetheless hired 53 full-time permanent city employees - the majority of them new police officers - since he was re-elected May 12. Last week, the mayor confirmed the city will institute 12 mandatory furlough days for all city workers except those in the police and fire departments. The furloughs will result in those employees losing 9.2 percent of their salary from Dec. 24 through June 30. But despite these drastic measures, city officials insist the new hires were needed. Healy spokeswoman Jennifer Morrill said that except for 28 new police officers, all of the new hires are replacing people who left positions that are necessary, according to department directors. She also said every hire has been approved by the state. Because Jersey City receives millions in aid from New Jersey, the state requires the city to obtain approval for all new hires. The Police Department hired 28 new police officers at starting salaries of $30, 675, two non-uniformed "information officers" for $27,000 a year each, and a student assistant at $25,000 a year. Ward C Councilwoman Nidia Lopez also came on board after the last election at $33,430 a year, and five new City Council aides were hired at $15,000 a year. The law department hired a new attorney for $90,000 a year, and the city hired a municipal prosecutor for $39,000 a year. In addition, one cashier and two clerks for the Municipal Court were hired at $27,000 a year and two court bailiffs came on board at $27,000 a year each. Health and Human Services got a new nutritionist, but that person's $28,000-a-year salary is paid for by a grant. In addition, six crossing guards were hired at $30,675 a year, an automotive worker for the Department of Public Works was hired at $48,000 a year and a computer technician for the city's police communications center was hired at $43,000 a year. The count does not include seasonal temporary employees that are primarily hired for the recreation and parks departments for the summer months, Morrill said. These workers are paid hourly and do not receive benefits.
