Newark was once a world class city.
I don’t see why the state shouldn’t follow Newark. This will take longer, maybe a hundred years more. After all there is a lot of wealth that can still be squeezed.
I could see in a hundred years, importing or breeding masses of crypto slaves into New Jersey, so that it gets more Congressmen and teams up with Detroit(istan), New York( istan) and other states and vote themselves taxes just the same way urban cities in New Jersey vote themselves money from Trenton.
No, as a matter of fact, they are spreading all across the Great State of NJ like molasses down hill
