Ho. Lee. Crap.

You still don't get it. Or do you just keep repeating this BS because it fits your agenda and you hope people stop calling you on it?

Not true, responsible towns will cut spending.

What state money went to Citibank? NJ is the most business unfriendly state in the country, doing things to attract businesses to come here cuts down on unemployment. Which in turn cuts unemployment payments and increases the number of people paying taxes.

Well I guess I woke up the tea partiers. I got a letter in the mail from that nut job Lonegan today bashing our Congressman Smith(R) for not voting to cut the federal deficit by 100 billion. I'm proud to say I voted for Smith. I practically ran Bret Shundlers campaign for mayor 3 times and he won. I'm sad to say I couldn't help with his bid for governor(many bus rides for naught). I'm a moderate not a kook. Someone said I'm a tough guy republican(macho) well thanks but no thanks. The tea partiers would have everyone but the rich eating dog food.

that reminds me of my recent conversation with my neighbor (a teacher)... she believes that all the things she is deprived in live are the result of inability of the corrupted NJ government to (1) increase corporate tax; and (2) unwilliness to reinstate $1M tax... I tried to expain to no effect that NJ is already in the Top 5 on corporate taxes and there is the upper tax limit where tax collection stops being effective - corporations and riches leave, hide taxes, or just stop produce...

I failed, but learned that impasse is not due to the lack of education... if they agree that your argument is reasonable, they would leave a safe heaven in their heads and have a mental breakdown... they can't admit that they built their income strategy on the wrong assumptions... the only healthy way is to stick to your guns and filter the input accordingly...

Are you forced into buying market rates health care for you and all your employees as actual full-time business owners do??

Or do you shift a burden of those significant costs with the subsidized benefits you receive from your public cop/detective gig?

Exactly.

...and the true colors come out.

At least I hope now you see how you're truly not the Republican you want to identify yourself as?



Tell your wife and kids, "You're welcome" for the subsidized benefits since their husband/father, who laughably strives to portray the "Republican macho man cop" mentality...

...in reality isn't even 'macho man' enough to pay for his own benefits, let alone the provided gun on his holster.



Oh sweet irony.

Well I was saving lives before u were born. My kids have their own health care, And I didn't know that a business owner-public servant couldn't vote republican. I guess u have to be a mid 20 carpet bagging, financial wiz ,opinionated, gay male to vote republican. Don't worry about getting family health benefits as your republican governor won't allow gay marriage. Have a nice day. I'm done you can respond all u want.

Again I'll repeat for the uneducated. The article states the past 8 yrs BEFORE Christie was governor, the Democratic controlled legislature and Democratic governors saw property tax increases of 56.2%. Thats an average of 7% a year. Christie saw an increase in his first year WITH A DEMOCRATIC LEGISLATURE no less either of the 4.1%. Hmm what's larger per year...7% or 4.1%. Thought so.
Sorry for being uneducated and again my point is both sides are usually right and wrong at the same time.
Sorry that doesnt buy into your company line. I was talking about from 2007 and down. Taxes went up less Per year under Corzine from 2007 until he left office then they did in one year under Christie. A facts a fact. I know you can talk about 10 years ago and whatever but if Corzine would have won and he "raised" taxes by the amount Christie did he would have been bashed by people like you.
