How much I hate NJ (Burlington: incomes, to live, retire)

[BPerone201]

If you have a degree or a great jobb in the right part of NJ you'd be ok.
Your earnings are relative to everything you pay for.

You can't expect to earn way more than average and pay for stuff like your in SC.

Call us new money, bridge & tunnel...................... Something.

I could care less about your car or hair.......the problem on here is not comments that I post but the general refusal of those who try to defend NJs problems........while high taxes are not a new issue in New Jersey being the highest taxed state of all 50 is and I just can't comprehend how anyone can ignore this or be so blind as to take the position that they don't think the taxes are so bad ? Doesn't anyone get mad about constantly being taken advantage of by the politicians in this state or is it just easier to silently reach into your wallet and continue throwing money out the window ?

Its hard to compare the financially elite of Hunderton County even to the rest of New Jersey let alone Florida or any other state for that matter. The income per household in Hunderton County is one of the highest in the nation and certainly doesn't relate to most living in this state. Few can afford to live there and even fewer can afford to retire there.

Your response doesn't answer the question asked......and.......it makes no sense.......if New Jersey has the worst taxes of all 50 states how can it only be half as bad as Maryland ?????

Your fantasy stories may make you feel better and rationalize your decision to move, but they are not the reality for most residents.

Why do you always label anyone who doesn't agree with your angry, personally skewed view of the south and florida as living in a "fantasy" and do your best to discredit the description of the happy life styles they have discovered where they have moved to.........what do all these posters have to gain by lying about their positive experiences of moving to the south and Florida ???
