~~~~~~~SHUDDER~~~~~~ Hush Bob now just hush..somebody in Trenton may be reading this
Hey Kate, remember about 20 years ago when then-Mayor Dinkins had some of his stooges taking down NY State plates in the Garden State Plaza in Paramus? The pols will try to do anything to extricate revenue (particularly during a recession), particularly in the ensuing 6 months after an election. Don't think for one minute this idea hasn't been considered in the NJ statehouse.

Even worse Kate, would be if the Governor decided to imitate the income tax rates of most of the Southern States. Here, the top rate of nearly 10% kicks in at the $60,000 level. That comes as a shock to those retired Police Captains from NJ who move here and then find out that their state income tax increases, trump anything they save on the property tax end!

I would then retire to a state that does not tax pensions..any of it I think Mississippi is like that......if one could consider living there ~~~shudder~~~~
So that's what my friend eddie is moaning about..retired police LT..just moved to Morrisville (?) NC around Cary.....keeps wanting us to come down...but he's miserable and misery is not getting company in the form of hubbie & I..lol
he wanted to come back but to keep on topic he can't afford to now..says there is nothing affordable here unless he moves to the ghetto....
Wow, looks like the jilted, obsessed ex-Jersey folks are back in full force. It's sad that their new homes don't offer them enough to keep them occupied and can't get their obsessed minds off NJ. I suppose if I lived in a boring redneck toilet like Georgia or a crime-infested, drunk-driving and meth haven like New Mexico I'd probably be bored, too, and obsess over New Jersey the place I'd wanted to be but couldn't hack it and had to leave against my will. Sucks to be those guys...

CARY - Collection Area for Relocated Yankees!
I don't understand why he might be so miserable..unless his kids are still in NJ. That can make a big difference in your state of mind. So many people in that area as well as mine are from NY/NJ.
If you have a job out that way, sure. But Warren county is not exactly an easy place to find a decent paying job
you never said anything about a specific area. this area is in pharm/teleco land, plus you have parsippany and the bridgewater area not too far away.
btw - it's morris county, not warren.
