"...There is only one instance since World War II of the U.S economy increasing the employment-population ratio by five percentage points in a decade: the recovery that followed Ronald Reagan's tax cuts in 1983.... An administration that pursued job creation—not ideology—would note this history and see how individuals and companies can create wealth and jobs quickly if they have the right incentives. Instead, we have policies that are uncertain and portend higher taxes and greater regulatory burdens. This is causing business and consumers alike to restrain spending, creating a drag on the economy too great for any government stimulus to reverse...."

What is the solution?
Obamanomics/government spending?
Reaganomics/tax cuts?
Something else?
Record market, record corporate profits. What are you trying to solve?
You matter. Unless you multiply yourself by c squared. Then you energy.

LOL - it's called market forces. Every state around has opened casinos - AC is a pit, so no one wants to venture there to gamble when they can do it in nicer spots.

This. My mother in law was telling me about her first job on the AC boardwalk. The casinos were big business and money was good. As other states began opening casinos, those in AC began feeling the strain. It was a matter of time.
