See my screen name. :-(

The reason for the high property taxes is that every little town here has its own school district, its own police department, etc.

The small towns there with their own PDs are the ones you have to drive through strictly by the book or else get a ticket.

I own a house in moonbat blue Washington state and pay only $3100/year in property taxes!

Which part? I'm on two acres in the Tri-Cities and only pay $1800

Was going to add; looking at houses in Kansas with PT of $300 to $400 a year 😂

Christie has capped the increases at 2%, which helps a bit; the municipal employees unions hate him because if they had their way we’d all be paying $15K per year.

Every year will set a record because 2% on top of the already-high taxes will always be a “new high”.

Christie has the support of homeowners because he tells it like it is; he simply can’t stop the exodus of Americans from the state because they know that most of their taxes (about 75% goes to local schools) is being wasted on foreigners and gibsmedats.

gibsmedats?

Pierce County near Tacoma.

King County/Seattle is worse but not Jersey worse!

...and they’re succeeding splendidly.

Welfarians (non-contributors) - a group of people who refuse to contribute anything to their own upkeep (give-me-thats”).
