People are already leaving NJ because of the high taxes.
And yet they keep raising taxes. Can’t theses idiots understand basic economics? Lowering taxes will increase investment and industry in NJ and thus the tax base. But I preach to the choir here, sorry.
The state is (or was) full of conservatives and most are leaving. When the constitution can be ignored on a whim their vote can be ignored, as it has been in recent history.
Just seems that everyone (politicians) wants to make their millions and retire … the welfare of the inhabitants of NJ (and its future) be damned.
Yes people are leaving, but the dems are more than happy to chase away republicans and replace them with yellow dog democrats. Down here in the trenches (local level) these guys care nothing about the public good. It’s all a game so they can retain power and give themselves and their friends public employment. In my town, the real dem power is the town attorney who runs the machine to keep himself, his family and his cronies on the public dole. When you talk about what is good for the community they sneer at you.
