Something For The Proles

How about giving them some money instead?

We hope there is no very next play. We would like, most of all, to see the interested parties come to a consensus here, set the legal wrangling aside, and allow the development deal — estimated at $3.7 billion in the form of an expanded entertainment and retail center — to proceed. We believe the so-called American Dream Meadowlands project could be a boon to the North Jersey economy.

It could bring thousands of jobs and ultimately be a family-friendly destination for working-class New Jersey families. It certainly would be preferable to the eyesore construction that has been sitting at the site all these years unoccupied and doing no good to anyone.

Wishes are ponies.
